Intel to slap hardware lock on Management Engine code to thwart downgrade attacks

Re: Time to switch

AMD Non-Pro Ryzens to not have a built in management engine either.

We never had this problem with ROM because security was an afterthought.....

This is false security

So you make the update, effectively turn it to a ROM based system. Great that means it cannot be downgraded. What do you do when more exploits are found? Now you are stuck with a permanent vulnerability built into your hardware. This is no better than the supposed "rollback" vulnerability. Intel

Was Nokia's Elop history's worst CEO?

Elop isn't the world's worst CEO he was acting on orders

Everyone seems to have forgotten Elop went from Microsoft to Nokia. His orders were to bring Nokia into the fold. What better way to destroy enough company value than to bet the farm on Windows? This wasn't something done through stupidity or idiocy but a well-crafted plan by Microsoft. It is easy to blame this on incompetence but the record speaks volumes. Look at what Microsoft does to competitors it can..it destroys them..then eats them..where they most likely die. This is just a new way of executing their old plays as they have done for years.
