It's very hard to avoid running ME even if you believe it's actively harmful.
- ksk 9y agoThat is a good point. I suppose you could mitigate that if you were building new systems and used AMD products.
- brndnmtthws 9y agoAMD has its own equivalent of ME also.
- xkarga00 9y agoHow do you know that AMD does not run its own version of ME? The only viable solution I see is open hardware.
- ksk 9y agoWhat does viable mean? Where can I go out and purchase it? Yes, hypothetically, anything is possible.
- xkarga00 9y agoviable == introspectable
- kbenson 9y agoMitigation does not necessarily mean to entirely protect. Having less of a homogeneous ecosystem mitigates the risk of any one vulnerability, as it's unlikely to affect as many systems. It's not a solution, but it may help.
