Stallman was right again.

It's interesting that Intel kept it secret for so long and that the company who discovered it didn't blow the lid after it was clear Intel wouldn't do a thing. The fact that it's published after all this time is suspect — why now? Maybe there is an even worse backdoor in the newer stuff and they want to compromise the paranoids through a ``security'' update. After all, the problem isn't that AMT is exploitable by random script kiddies, but that there is a fucking unauditable second OS in your box that has full control over everything. AMT is a backdoor sold as a feature, and there is exactly one way to fight it: Boycott every single CPU that includes it.
