NS VP (Ops) Torus has said that giving TPMs to the Bolitic would violate the agreement the Dinos signed with NS years ago when NS exchanged TPM technology for worm drives. "The terms clearly say that TPMs can only be shared with the members of the Dino Trade Association, the Bolitic are not in the DTA." she said.
However, Torus admitted that there was little NS could do to stop it. Enough time has passed now for Dino and NS TPM technology to diverge along separate lines of development. Dino TPMs are said to be equivalent to TPM-2 whilst NS has more advanced technology. An NS Research source said that Dino TPMs did have some advantages however.
The Dinos said that a decision on whether to share the technology with the Bolitic has not yet been made.
