In this video, we are explaining what the Intel ME is and how to disable it.More information about Dasharo coreboot: https://novacustom.com/coreboot-laptop/0...
Because parts of it have already been reverse engineered, we know it runs a modified version of Minix, and I would think that if a backdoor had been found during the reverse engineering process, that it would have been huge fucking computer security news.
It’s only a backdoor in the sense that Intel was practicing security through obscurity instead of real security. There is proof an attacker could abuse the IME, but there is not proof it’s an intended backdoor for use by Intel in spying on their customers.
Brand new Lemmy user account, what exactly are you trying to get at with these semitic allusions? What does OP’s post have to do with antisemitism? Why are you calling @[email protected] “goy”? Do you know them personally and so know they are not Jewish?

How do you know?

Damn, thanks.
I was afraid for a second if my decision was bad for the server to use Intel with ME instead of a very specific hardware with coreboot.
I think this would cost me 1000€ instead of 120€ just for being paranoid.
I agree the word “backdoor” is used too often

Probably an anti something false flag troll.
Nope. If someone found such a backdoor, it is more likely he/she sold it to the three letter agencies, who love hoarding vulnerabilities like that.
Brain rot grows strong within this one.
