Numerous vulnerabilities in AMD processors

> It's not *completely* implausible to suggest that Intel may be trying to herd people back by trying to highlight (and possibly exaggerate) some AMD-specific problems in turn.

While this type of "competitive marketing analysis" has existed since forever for performance and others, it didn't seem to happen for security until recently. One can imagine many possible explanations but for sure users and consumers didn't benefit from that lack of competition.

Short of liability, "name and shame" is the only way that stands some chance to make some difference. Yes there will be more "fake news" now but I still prefer that to no security news at all. For the moment I trust the tech press more than the mainstream one.
