CuBox's specs mention ARM FreeZone. FreeZone is similar to Trusted Platform Module (TPM) which is for digital rights management. Does FreeZone make visible to websites UUIDs of computers such as the processor serial number, hard drive serial number and other hardware serial numbers?

Is the processor serial number visible on the internet?

What does "make visible to websites" mean?
If the CPU maker wanted to do literaly what that means, the CPU would need to hijack networking, look for HTTP headers and inject that information in there.
Which is totally stupid and useless IMHO.
