How do you silence people who oppose the government?

You create a Snowden and spread the message that everyone is being watched.

You make sure it gets full media coverage.

You tell the public that they can be imprisoned without trial.

While it all may be true, it served a purpose to let everyone in on the secret.

You don't know anything about vPro/ME you? ME is similar to HPs iLo .. it's an entire mini operating system/firmware on the hardware in case you screw up the software on the actual server. (If you have a rack of 1,000 servers, you can see why this is important).

It grants full console access and is attached directly to the north bridge in order to preform diagnostics. It runs independently of the OS and has its own memory space when the host OS is running, but if you boot directly into it, it runs as the primary OS. It does have total direct memory access to the host OS, even while it's running.

Intel geeks confirmed as Dr. Who fans.

Think about why does the government not want to upgrade their computer infrastructure to something outside of the Core 2. Wonder if Xeon series is compromised?

FairDinkum ago

lol, got a source for that?

Why do you give a shit? It’s just a fucking username.

What I’m furious about is this fucking restriction I just got. “Denied - Cannot downvote more than you upvote (Submission Voting Meanie 2.3.1)” What the fuck is that shit?! Who is the website owner to say how much I can disagree with?! Fuck him. It’s bullshit like this that makes me want to learn how bots work so that I can bypass this orwellian bullshit. This site is supposed to exist because of the retardation that is Reddit, not to COMPLIMENT IT.

Comments like it's well known...everyone knows this, downplays the seriousness of the situation. It creates a defeatist attitude and does nothing to remedy the problem. I don't know what to do, but letting this slide because it is known is not the answer

Lobotomy ago

Are you really stupid enough to think that we have the power to stop this?

We knew about MKUltra for fifty fucking years, WHY DIDN'T YOU TRY TO STOP IT?

I have personally known about this Intel snoopery since 2008, it's pretty goddamned common knowledge by now. It is your fault and yours alone for being out of the loop.

libertyordeath ago

Yep. Fucking bring it

Lobotomy ago

Are we getting Reddit cancer again? 'Cause this fuckin guy, man.

Tired of going into remission every month, this is getting tiresome.

vastrightwing ago

So Intel adds hardware that adds no value for consumers and in facts makes their device less secure. Got it.

philomath ago

I don't know that it for sure is, but I certainly wouldn't be surprised.

or always dvote sgXXXXX.

Maybe he made up a "credible" story to cover his tracks?

Why do you rape children?

philomath ago

Seems like the dude gave way too much info on himself for somebody leaking classified information.

XAPHAN ago

This is old news. I have heard of this before.

Didn't we already know this?

frizla ago

Yeah we did, for a few years now. But this story is fake and gay.

XAPHAN ago

it's " Gayke "

look, a conspiracy! users upvoat someone and are banned for it! puttitout promised clarification and gave you none! voat is now compromised. dissent is silenced. voat is done.

i wonder how hard they'll have to drag kevdude and mick away after the goat community removes criminal shills. #REMEMBER, @PUTTITOUT NOW MANUALLY MANIPULATES USERS' CCP AND BANS ANYONE UPVOATING SANEGOATISWEAR. IF YOU UPVOTE SOMEONE, YOU MAY BE BANNED. THIS IS HOW VOAT IS RUN NOW: BY PRO-CENSORSHIP SHILLS LIKE @PUTTITOUT. NOT ONLY DID @PUTTITOUT ADMIT TO SHADOWBANNING USERS WITH NO RULES BEHIND THE BANS, THE SHILL CEO HAS ADMITTED TO MANIPULATING USERS' CCP MANUALLY. IT'S POSSIBLE ANY OF THE SRS CABAL WITH API ACCESS CAN NOW MANIPULATE OTHER USERS' CCP. ..

Does a similar technology exist in AMD chips...if anyone knows?

I'll say no. So that way someone'll correct me if I'm wrong.

philomath ago

Just walk away. Go outside. There's an entire world out there.

o0shad0o ago

The management engine's potential for backdooring is well known. AMD has a similar setup.

djsumdog ago

There are people who have attempted to disable and remove ME. It's pretty difficult .. lots of things that, if you chance, will just brick the motherboard. There are a lot of signature and checksum checks.

djsumdog ago

Here is the article I was thinking of:

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Intel-ME-Cleaning

Edit: github link to actual project:

libertyordeath ago

If it is so well known...why didn't you provide evidence. Why didn't you try to stop it? If you knew and did nothing, you are part of the problem

o0shad0o ago

You're right. 'Scuse me while I go bomb an intel chip factory. 9_9

Go google "intel management engine security".

Also, a way has been found to disable the engine. Note that it may also deactivate any late version of Windows (many W7 installs included) and not let you reactivate them.

Wuttier ago

Would love to see some more inside info on that as well.

Slayfire122 ago

I don't remember you ever denying that you've rapped children before? What says you pedophile rapist?

Wuttier ago

What is your major malfunction, cunt.
