Intel confirmed for botnet. Unless you use AMD be prepared for a dawn raid.
>>55124949
>Unless you use AMD
Recent AMD chips (anything post-Vishera) have the exact same hardware botnet built-in. There's no escape any more, friend. But that's okay, because you don't have anything to hide... do you?
>>55124989
Only APUs, not non-APU CPUs.
>>55124989
Not even remotely close, you FUD spreading retard.
An ARM TrustZone processor, which is completely disclosed, advertised even, serves legitimate uses that increase system security. It makes browsers safer for online shopping and banking, for users who bring their own laptops to work it protects the business.
Intel hiding a remote kill switch that was kept top secret isn't even in the same realm.
>>55125681
Retard.
>>55125020
Not true. Anything post-Bulldozer has it, including chips with no integrated graphics like the Athlon X4 860K. It's only the FX line that doesn't, and obviously Zen will have it too.

Go away you dumb fanboy.
>>55126134
False.
>>55126158
You're not getting paid for the day if that's the level of effort you're going to put in, Sanjay.
But why is all of the tech now against us?
>>55126212
Fuck off shill

>This is basically AMD's own version of the Intel Management Engine. It has all of the same basic security and freedom issues, although the implementation is wildly different.

>For a company to go from being so good, to so bad, in just 3 years, shows that something is seriously wrong with AMD. Like Intel, they do not deserve your money.
AYYMDPOORFAGS CONFIRMED ON SUICIDE WATCH
>>55126232
>F-F-FUCK YOU!!!
I'm sorry that I've broken your heart and exposed you to your beloved AMD being no better than Intel, anon. I hope you have nothing to hide.
How is IME or AMD's PSP a 'secret'? When Intel introduced it, they used in the advertising.
>>55126268
Ok shill
>>55124949
> 2016
> using x86
> not using x64
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA WHAT ARE YOU???? A POORFAG???? HAHAHAHAHAHA
EVEN SMARTPHONES ARE 64BIT NOWADAYS, JUST GET A JOB!!!!!!!
>>55126339
You can't be this stupid
>>55126339
Is this bait?
>>55126339
The proper term is "x86-64."
See a problem here?
>>55124949
I don't understand why this is in the news now. The IME was raised as a concern 4 years ago, and only now it's getting media attention.
You're literally all part of the botnet.
Why does Intel and AMD agree to implement "botnet" features? Are they forced to?
>>55126243
>something is seriously wrong with AMD. Like Intel, they do not deserve your money.
So, manufacture your own CPUs?
Because you can either have AMD CPU or Intel. There is no other option.
>>55126499
Yes.
>>55126339
richposting is a meme now I take it?
>>55126454
Proper term is 'amd64'.
>>55126557
What happens if they don't comply?
Is this bad or tinfoil hattery
>>55126576
Dissolution, ridiculous fines, bogus charges/spy allegations, etc.
>>55126599
It's actually bad.
>>55124949
New thread about this old news for every repost website that publishes it?
How new you guys are if you didn't know about AMT/IME?
>>55126570
AKA x86-64. They're both proper, but x64 is not.
>>55126576
>"Oh, it says here that you didn't pay taxes 3 years ago. Tough luck your company will go bankrupt now."
>>55126599
If you're not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about
>>55126684
When Intel started using the x86-64 in their marketing, spineless followed. Hell, even linux mainline devs did.
With the term 'amd64', its clear who developed and released the extension, that's why it should be used, as it was used before Intel shills bowed to their master.
Ignorance will be the stepping stone to disaster, like always. 95% of computer users today don't know or remember Intel's marketing tactics in the 90's or who destroyed 3dfx (Nvidia) or Aureal (Creative).
AMD is a shitty company with clueless marketing sector, but they are lot less harmful than Intel.

You can't even read the fucking article you linked. Congrats.
Shit eating tech illiterate retarded children.
>>55127586
Principles are all that matter.
>>55127637
Thats delusional bullshit.
Freetards are hypocritical autists who are at complete odds with reality. Its akin to arguing that all doors are bad because jail cells have a certain kind of door, and jail cells restrict freedom.
This isn't even AMD's design, its literally stock ARM IP. It exists because it makes the computer more secure on a network.
Did any of you worthless foot cheese eating man children complain when every processor in existence started implementing trusted execution? This is the exact same type of thing.

>Hardware security expert Damien Zammit says that recent Intel x86 CPUs come with a secret subsystem that works as a separate CPU inside your CPU, can't be disabled, and nobody can review the closed proprietary code.

again how do they know its a backdoor ?

You intern or employee? which site?
