“We have obtained fully functional JTAG for Intel CSME via USB DCI”
Companies like Intel, who are complicit in helping CIA or any intel agency (government, rogue or otherwise) infiltrate and exploit our systems - need to be held accountable by the market.<p>Intel ME and the (assumed [0]) partnership with CIA to design and build this system - should be an absolute travesty blow to the integrity of their business long-term.  Will you, as lead engineer or sys admin for your mission critical business now continue to choose Intel products to help build your infrastructure?<p>Unfortunately it seems that our modern market has not yet evolved enough to punish companies involved in such reckless behavior.  I suspect the reason is primarily the ease of which governments can mass tax and create fiat currency.  Perhaps there is some alternate decentarlized currency system that would limit government&#x27;s ability to tax, print and award juicy big-brother contracts to these companies.<p>Anyway, for now at best - and perhaps somewhat encouraging - is the subsequent brain drain of engineers and hackers alike who want nothing to do with faceless corporations like Intel, Google, Facebook, IBM, et all who routinely deceive&#x2F;exploit and work against the best interest of their own customers.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;9th_prestige&#x2F;status&#x2F;928740294090285057" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;9th_prestige&#x2F;status&#x2F;928740294090285057</a>
