This is an incredibly robust solution to a really pressing problem for a lot of individuals/orgs who want to use/deploy reasonably powerful LLMs without paying through the nose for hardware. Others have mentioned the hyperscalers have solutions that make some amount of sense (Azure confidential computing, AWS nitro enclaves) but if you read a bit more about Tinfoil, it is clear they want to operate with far less explicit user trust (and thus much better security). This team is setting the standard for provably private LLM inference, and to me, it makes other solutions seem half-baked by comparison. Props to this talented group of people.
