You speak like a person of authority on this subject, but AMD has come out and said they are specifically immune to these threats:

AMD has "hardware protection checks in our architecture" which disputes your assertion that AMD just isn't a targeted platform. The reality is any computing platform can be vulnerable to undiscovered vulnerabilities so making that point is kind of pointless.
Also, disabling JS on the browser pretty much completely eliminates e-commerce on the web. Again, I can't fathom the masses seeing any benefit in this.
