Tied to user for 3 years. From a law enforcement perspective I’m more interested in the ‘other devices in your computing environment’. They state they are generating a random UID tied to your system, so I assume if I know the UID from the suspect computer then a warrant could be issued to Intel for this information.
- kabdib 7y agoIf it's kept over three years, you have to believe that there are backups of the data made, and that the backups are retained forever. So ANY persistent mapping from the data to a specific computer is effectively permanent the moment it hits their backend (maybe someone has to load a tape, so it's not instantaneous, but still available to a warrant or subpoena or shenanigans). If there is any "risk that any data ... can be traced to a particular computer" on day 1 that the stuff is stored, then that risk never goes away.
