This is why I show preference towards AMD chips even when they have the competitive disadvantage. Any sufficiently large company ends up, through their will or the gov'ts, wrapped up in politics. Which is the one of the larger issues of our age.
Any company with over 1k employees probably is. I'm just saying if there are any systemic backdoors in Intel chips, AMD probably doesn't have them because they are 5 - 10% of the market and the gov't doesn't care to jump through hoops to get them implementing whatever backdoor they want.

AMD is probably cooperating with the government on the same level as Intel.
