On a broader front it does give food for thought on how our processors are designed, trusted, and generally run. This issue is only likely to intensify with the increase in services a cpu is designed to supply.

From my own perspective i'm old fashioned I like a RISC architecture CPU that just processes instructions(no microcode involved), that way I can trust it to do what its told.
