"Last week, his worst fears were proved right when Intel, one of the world’s largest chipmakers, said all modern processors can be attacked by techniques dubbed Meltdown and Spectre".
Seems like a sneaky reporting by Bloomberg - has Intel actually said that "all modern processors can be attacked by ... Meltdown"?
- makomk 9y agoThey're basically just regurgitating the sneakiness of Intel's official press release, which just said that all modern processors were affected and it wasn't an Intel-specific problem without clarifying in any way that the most serious problem was Intel-specific.
