Welp, now that Intel is a USian state-owned corporation, I guess I can't buy a single thing Intel ever makes again. They weren't exactly trustworthy before, but now they will *for sure* have fascist government-mandated backdoors in absolutely everything.
I am assuming you do not ride on f@sc!st state-owned trains operated by Amtrak or open your mailbox to receive letters delivered by the f@sc!st state-owned post office then, yes?
Considering I am not USian, no. I do not. In fact I avoid USikkka as much as humanly possible. Because of the fascism.
Got it! Just post about it Caryyy On (try to stay calm though :)
every chip has back door access and has for a looong time, you really think intel wouldn’t sell that to anyone that pays?
(They always did. As does AMD.)
'murica: good at bizniss!
All joking aside though: I'm legitimately concerned about buying anything with an Intel TPM now in a way I never have been about Huawei. Seriously and truly, Intel is now on my "do not buy for security reasons" list.
It's called the Intel Management Engine. Old news. It's already in their processors.
