Curious about this.

I wonder if it has anything to do with this recent report from Microsoft on the Platinum group (using Intel AMT):

What makes other operating systems better? The government has millions of dollars devoted to finding exploits in operating systems.

Misleading headline. These vulns have now been patched.

The wannaCry ones were. This is a new thing this week.
