Just wait until you hear about your cursor being tracked on pages and what images and positions on the site you hover and stop scrolling over :p

Intel isn't giving my browser data to enemies of the state. What do you really think Intel is doing with this information?

And yeah, website URLs are important since people want to bootstrap and toss WebGL all over the place needlessly; all that is GPU accelerated. Blame anyone not using a plain-text website.

I actually have no idea, which is part of the point. The concern isn't [primarily] Intel. Eventually, it will be leaked or sold or shared with third party contractors who will leak or sell it or share with third party contractors who will...

Once private data leaves your system, you have no control over it. The reputation of any one company doesn't protect it.


This guy defends Intel so fucking hard it makes me cringe.


Yeah I defend stuff that works :p

AMD is what you get without telemetry; crap API support on Windows (they took their already mangled stack and Jay Wilson'd it May 2022), next to no innovation with AI, flopped OpenCL, and have to concede with HIP since CUDA is too good. They can't even fix their botched TPM support that's so bad it had to be disabled globally on Linux.


Username checks out ;p
