    Intel has literally done this, and stuff like it before.

    They back “independent” researchers who twist themselves in knots to make AMD look bad.

    Look up the multiple counts of bullshit from a “research group” called Principled Technologies.

    Sidenote: the guy who ran it was Ryan Shrout, who used to work for PC Perspective, and would usually give favourable reviews to Intel. After leaving Principled Technologies, he became head of technical marketing at… drumroll… Intel!

    Principled Technologies isn’t the only scam “independent researcher” Intel has set up or paid handsomely either.

      I thought switching to AMD should’ve kept me save from Intel ME (I used ME_cleaner if I had too) :(
