RE: "Everyone Is Affected": Why The Implications Of The Intel "Bug" Are Staggering

in #psa6 years ago

It's insane. Everyone is talking about Intel being held responsible by the government. Like they're going to come down hard on them for the C-suite employees selling their stock before the news broke. Who's going to go after them? The US Gov? Who do you think has been taking advantage of this security flaw? The US Gov has known about it as long as Intel has, and there's a reason they didn't force them to fix it back then. They're the ones benefitting from it. They're not going to hold anyone responsible. Best case they find a scapegoat to appease the public.
