> One thing we would actually want, here, though, is a setup where you can rent out your computer (i.e. as an IaaS provider), without being capable of monitoring the renter.

That would require all hardware to be secure against all attackers. As soon as one attacker breaks one hardware model, they can start extracting and selling private keys that allow anyone to emulate that piece of hardware in software.

I'm also having a hard time seeing the use case. What kind of thing has hard secrecy requirements but demands so much hardware that you can't justify owning it?
