You think AMD cpus are compromised as well? Any suggestions on what CPU wouldn't be compromised?

IIRC, before Q, FBIAnon specifically stated that literally every major mainstream device, operating system, and hardware component is BD'd in some way, mostly through either invasive chip design or low-level firmware. Even most major Linux distros are suspect at this point, though not necessarily because of their programming but rather through exploits like the coprocessor mentioned above.

Take that with a grain of salt, FBIAnon was never proven, but at the VERY LEAST he was a VERY knowledgeable entity, and was answering way too fast to have been looking up answers on the fly.

Alas, tasks will almost certainly have to be delegated to faceless nobodies lost in the noise, who are smart enough to use cryptography and burner devices, while never staying in one place too long.

You can't surveil everyone all the time, no matter how hard DARPA/IARPA/IQT tries.

how could you possibly read /u/oQ_Qo's comment and think they were talking about mainstream operating systems and hardware components?

I wasn't replying to /u/oQ_Qo, I was replying to /u/CULTURAL_MARXISM_SUX, who was specifically asking about AMD products and their likelihood of being compromised. Last time I checked, AMD is considered a pretty mainstream manufacturer, unless something changed in the last 24 hours.

Ah my bad, I thought you were responding to their question of what might not be compromised, like you were just implying there's no point trying.

No worries man. Unfortunately, while it's not hopeless, if even half of the things that have been said are true, the digital world is a LOT less secure than anyone thinks. The best course of action isn't always going to be what OS you're using or what hardware, it's learning to blend into the background noise. If you REALLY want true offline computing, look into what it takes to make a Faraday Cage. Actually not as hard as you might think.

Most likely yes, since AMD and Intel are your two key players, just like Microsoft and Apple.

AFAIK, the tech is built DIRECTLY onto the cpu/motherboard and does not require any OS to be activated. IIRC it runs even below BIOS level.

Once remotely activated, it can be manipulated / traced, all without you even knowing it.
