US to take 10% equity stake in Intel, in Trump’s latest corporate move. What are you thoughts on this from a privacy standpoint? I’m not close to being an expert on this tech, but can the US Government exploit this?

    What do you use instead? Isn’t AMD PSP similar to Intel ME and probably works the same?

      Potentially, but China isn’t making the same claims per AMD. Also, Intel used to be so dominant, I could see a long-term NSA spying plan from the Obama years just assuming Intel would still be dominant 15 years out and not bothering with AMD. Of the duopoly choices, it seems rational to pick AMD.
