Yeah, it's more of Microsoft doing their typical 'buzzword' fear-mongering approach to advertisement. Scare the boomers with scary words that sound important and release a tool at the same time to induce fake panic to get people to go out and buy new hardware. It's a win/win for Microsoft and its partners. Partners sell more hardware that comes pre-installed with Windows 10 (in a ready-to-upgrade state) or now with 11, which in turns feeds Microsoft with all the new telemetry customers that they'll gain.

Would personally bet that they have no actual data to back up those numbers and base it on a large sample of bias data.

The main places that would even benefit from things like TPM 2.0, secure boot, full drive encryption, etc. are major companies/corps. that half the time are still running things like XP or Win7 because they wont spend the money to upgrade their backends to anything newer. A lot of them also do not want Win10 spying on their internal information/trade secrets, regardless of how many times MS wants to claim they aren't 'spying' on that kind of info.

Home users have literally no interest in those features for the 99%. The 1% are the nerd/neckbeards that have homelabs and think their side hobbies are targeted by foreign hackers lol. If they had real numbers to back up their claims, they'd share and post them, but instead like every other company that lies, they just throw out articles that try to fear people into upgrades.
