OpenTitan – Open sourcing transparent, trustworthy, and secure silicon

[uzero]

Trustworthy and Google don’t go in the same sentence. This will either try to do AMP on silicon or will get cancelled within few years. That’s the Google way.

> The OpenTitan project is managed by the lowRISC CIC, an independent not-for-profit company with a full-stack engineering team based in Cambridge, UK, and is supported by a coalition of like-minded partners, including ETH Zurich, G+D Mobile Security, Google, Nuvoton Technology, and Western Digital.

So much for this being a Google-led project with evil intend.

Had me hoping this might something related to CHERI, but no signs to suggest that. :(
