Thoughts:
Sad this is still not an actual method of disablement, but it doesn't really matter as anyone who buys *new* x86 hardware is still supporting wintel's development of newer and better anti-features, DRM and surveillance technology - one that can't even be me-cleaner/hap/etc nerfed will be released some day. I wish people spent their energy popularizing owner controlled arches instead of beating a dead horse.
While IBM also makes surveillance tech they make POWER which as the last performance owner controlled arch that sells for attainable prices goes a long way to offset that. Heres to hoping IBM starts selling POWER workstations...
I find it hard to believe that the NSA uses made in china intel stuff with ME chips present for their high security stuff (hap nerfed or not), I imagine top secret things are done on POWER (which has a USA cpu fab and no black boxes).
