>>14402501Who knows if that will even happen. There are probably top secret briefings inside an NSA server in their headquarters this very moment saying in detail how to access any modern ME system. But I could imagine this being an extremely closely guarded secret. It would destroy too much institutional trust if it leaked outside of the highest level of glowies.
>>14402535Intel's ME still operates when the PC is turned off (not unpowered). With that in mind, its best to assume the worst for what the US government is capable of. And having it off defeats the point of having it in the first place. I'm talking about using it without worrying about any data leaking in or out through some unknown means.
