I wonder if Right to Repair legislation would help us with this.

  This has nothing to do with repair because the product is not broken by any meaningful definition of the word "broken". It's just ill-designed from a certain POV.

    In the context of the proposed laws, does it have to be already broken for it to be considered repairable? Personally I'd rather not see the law as a bludgeon aimed at Intel's head but rather as a protocol or platform for communication about this issue. For example an if they released their overclockable CPUs with an individual encryption key for the ME, putting the end-users' interests first, I might be interested in being their customer once again. Right now I have a 2500k SandyBridge and no reason at all to upgrade, and certainly not with an Intel device.
