Will this allow my computer, in the future, to be as locked as current smartphones? Will this allow software to refuse to run or services to refuse to work depending on third party software I have installed?

Everything needed to lock down your computer as much as a phone already exists, there's no need for a TPM or Pluton to do so.

On the other hand, on PCs with Pluton chips they can change their minds any second.
