Once again I ask: 1) are all these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild today? 2) since everyone is running mitigations, no one is spending much time to exploit them, so why shouldn't I turn them off myself? Every time there's a new vulnerability out, I ask the same question and I still don't have a valid reason why I should keep them on. Herd immunity does not only apply to viruses. In fact, the slower our CPUs get because of these fiascos, the more performance I might squeeze out of something no one is exploiting in the wild, unless I have proof of the contrary. Of course, this works only if I disregard anyone's opinion and do it. If everybody turns off mitigations, then I'm unprotected.
