tl;dr

>tfw desktop is nearly ten years old
Pretty sure I am safe.

The kikes at intel are putting chips/trackers into new computers so they can monitor your hard drive for (((convenience)))

>8 year old AMD

I'm alright

>#goyimproblems

>using intel
>ever

Most of this shit can be switched off in BIOS

yeah we're fucked

Good thing I use ASUS. Literally the best PCs for people who aren't willing to pay 6 gorillion shekels for a supercomputer.

Intel is an Israeli company

they laugh when i tell them my pc specs
whos laughing now

Im all good here in nice AMD world. A little hot though, but it's fast and /cozy/

AMD masterrace here.

to be fair, this is mostly for corporate (and maybe government) laptops.

this shit costs money. they ain't gonna stick it in the cheap garbage that us plebs buy.

except it actually is in nearly everything that people buy if it's using intel hardware

I fell for the gaming meme and went with intel for my last build, now wish I hadn't.

Went AMD and its running good here 4 years later: an 8350. Way less expensive and same performance.

Why would you pay extra for a system with vPro? Makes no sense.

I've only ever seen one system with it: a corporate Thinkpad. That shit can be disabled in the BIOS and is only active anyway if you pay for a 3rd party service.

had a budget AMD before my 2600K, treated me well, will probably go amd for next build
you're talking about actual AMT, but the hardware that's required for it is ALREADY IN nearly every cpu past core 2, aka we're totally fucked

Your shit's got Intel.

Does anyone else's computer turn itself on sometimes unless the physical switch on the PSU is flipped?

Sometimes.

Time to resurrect my old IBM.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust

>buying (((INTEL))))

What doesn't have Intel?

oh no

>it's a Sup Forums does Sup Forums episode

AMT is just a bios feature for corporate deployment, where they need to manage thousands of computers.

No it's spyware.

How to prove that?

pretty much this

This shit is ancient and can be turned of in the bios.

Don't worry about it

amd motherboards and chipsets

look at all the shills in this thread saying "nothing to see here"

there's an easy way around this.

never use the internet.

>doesn't remember when we learned from the hbgary hacks that the nsa could pull data from computers that were turned off and unconnected to any network.

fucking newfag

There's some amazing nsa tech out there for sure, but this spyware I am talking about is built into every computer and has been for almost 10 years

Bump. Intel is a kosher company. If you were using Intel since the start, you deserve to neck yourself since you were practically funding Israel more. AMD master race FTW.

>Tfw Q6600 and P8600 with AMT disabled
Feels good to be safe from hardware botnet.

how dare the the ((spy agencies(( access my fart porn collection without permission

Bullshit, how can you hack an unconnected system?

yeah. and the nsa is using it.
where the fuq do you think it came from?

radio pathways.

AMD A series user, reporting in.

youtube.com/watch?v=MKGgBx8pDR4

I'd get some old computers while you can, the prices keep going up for the nicer models.

Apple PowerPC hardware is safe as well, Jobs wasn't cucked by the government.

I wonder though, what about shit like a Raspberry Pi, does it have the hardware backdoor bomb too?

Can we get a list of hardware that's very unlikely to have any management technology backdoors?

Samsung phones looked to be clean but the spyware was hidden in the baseband.

Guess im not switching to intel after all

>BIOS would tell you that most of this shit is switched off
Fixed.

So AMD is cool? This is just intel?

Some do turn it off but need to be custom BIOS but its not possible since Core 2 Duo series.

anyone concerned should run wireshark, learn the finer details about network communication, learn to spot any unusual activity and how to fix it

Mines older but still working

criminally underchecked

If I remember correctly, they've both been mandated by the gov to have backdoors on their cpu's. They're all spying on you. Hell, it's probably the only way AMD could make money off their shitty processors.

web.archive.org/web/20140806175328/http://www.arm.com/products/processors/technologies/trustzone/

ARM deleted their actual informative page on their management engine but AMD's had these in all their CPUs since at least 2013 and it's a whole ARM core that does all kinds of stuff similar to iAMT.


AMD KEKS BTFO

But my CPU is about 7 years old. Do you think it's only on the newer ones?

Anything from the Core 2 era and onward is suspect user.

I would imagine it took a few years after the national security letters went out on 9/11 before the new (((management))) engines were in most of the products being sold. Seems a 5 year time frame was pretty accurate.

C-checked in return.

This is a serious topic.

Post pre-iAMT computers in your collection:

>yes goy just put your face into our management engine to log in easy-like!

O-oh maybe AMD's not so based?

>snoop control unit

...

How many (((cores))) in your modern computer anons?

This is in your computer probably, unless you have the Intel version of the botnet.

Normie here. So how does one avoid this

>MULTIPLE CONCURRENT TASKS OR STAKEHOLDERS
>when the cia and the fbi and the nsa are all spying on you each with their own particular warez and 8KB isn't enough to satisfy them all at once

Basically, use an old computer (pre-2007 or so) and be aware that your OS might be subverted as well. OpenBSD is advised.

Huh??!?? I mean, what if I want speed? More than that, OpenBSD?

Is there nothing a normie can do?

What about mobile devices or other electronics? Using arcane electronics?

russia knows

Time to choose user.

Pre-cuck computing or the comfy warm semen-covered cuck computing of the post-SJW and spyworld era.

>(((media processing))) aka recording and compressing audio and video and photographs

bamp plox

I just got one of these, last of the US-made IBM Thinkpads, released before this cuckery made it into our computers.

how does one get a job collecting and monitoring data from millions of neckbeard computers?

After one of these too though.

OK so four questions
1. Should I smash old HDs with important info if they're partially corrupted?
2. What about things running Linux? I have an old laptop with that.
3. If I buy a new HDD does this fix it?
4. What if I use like Chinese and Japanese mobile devices to access Internet?

Digits confirm, gonna go break out the old commodore 64

>implying it all has to be done by humans
>implying that it isn't automated to the largest degree by computer vision, facial recognition, speech to text, and context-aware keyword monitoring
>1 post by this ID
cia plz go

>OK so four questions
>1. Should I smash old HDs with important info if they're partially corrupted?
Yes, smash, submerge in salt water, magnetize with large "fishing" magnet, etc.
>2. What about things running Linux? I have an old laptop with that.
I began to be suspicious of Linux when the NSA managed to get them to include Secure Linux in the kernel, and more suspicious when systemd started barging into practically every linux distro out there. Sadly.
>3. If I buy a new HDD does this fix it?
No the spyware is baked into your motherboard / processor in your laptop, desktop, or phone user.
>4. What if I use like Chinese and Japanese mobile devices to access Internet?
I'm not sure but I know that US persons handling any kind of sensitive data are advised not to put it on unauthorized devices, manchurian microchips come from the east too.

It's a pretty dire situation, literally no new computers can be relied upon or even usefully audited.

WHEN THE FUCK IS AMD GOING TO STOP BEING SHIT?

I WANT A DDR4 SYSTEM THAT BEATS A 4790k SYSTEM BY AT LEAST 50%

WHAT THE FUCK?

AMD has this shit too user.

somebody has to read the results eventually right

(Citation needed)


REEEEEeeee

Make sure it's a pre-Lenovo designed IBM. Some Thinkpads carried the IBM brand long after they were made in China.

No shit.

If you didn't already know shit was backdoored to all fuck, you weren't paying attention.

Soon.
Zen is supposed to launch early 2017 and will have all kinds of goodies. Hopefully at a reasonable price.

Does NVIDIA do anything like this, guys? I know their stock has boomed and they're innovators.

Like, could they be a new player not cucked like this?

read the thread user

any one of a number of agencies with the proper warrant or authorization, as well as (realistically) anybody with the proper signing keys can get into your machine user

there doesn't have to be a big room full of people watching you

even though there is

Do they make CPUs? If so they're probably cucked.

They may have cucked their math like Intel did to fuck with high precision results too.

>remote power up capability
spoopy

>Like, could they be a new player not cucked like this

>I have no idea what I'm talking about
It's for cache snooping which is for keeping caches consistent. It has nothing to do with privacy or security.

>this whole thread

this is why MACS ARE GOD

>not making ponytails wear hair nets

smdh, just unsanitary NSA...

>not having read the paper
it's part of a bigger scheme than that user

>not recognizing libreboot

>libreboot
does nothing to cure iAMT

>this is why MACS ARE GOD

Pretty much all electronic systems today have backdoors for the NSA. Macs are no exception
