This time it's only 6th Generation Core processors and up? I thought even the older ones had pretty much the same version of ME installed, which had the previous vulnerability.

#14So, will Intel be patching both the vulnerabilities and the kludges people have found to remove ME? Thus making some customers safer while maintaining systemic risk for everyone? "Asking for a friend"
Intel provides patches to vendors. Vendors provide patches to you eventually or never.

#16Most annoying thing is that there isn’t even a real alternative. If I understand it right then AMD chips have pretty much the same thing?

ARM could be a affordable alternative to x86 if that works for you.

I am really looking forward for either ARM to displace x64 or even better RISC-V. With ARM you have many more vendors so more chance for options, and RISC-V is the ultimate in openness.
