EC fines Intel record $1.45 billion in antitrust case for moves vs. AMD

Enforcing market share

The strong-arm tactics by Intel can only be explained if there is a
hidden agenda to have the Win-Tel combination run inside/on as many
computers world-wide.
What hidden agenda could be so interesting to have all puters run
Win-Tel worldwide, or to put it otherwise, which features of AMD CPU's,
or lack thereof, would disable such a hidden agenda? Here's some food
for thought :

According to one leading US cryptographer, the IT world should be thankful that the subversion of Windows by NSA has come to light before the arrival of CPUs that handles encrypted instruction sets. These would make the type of discoveries made this month impossible. "Had the next-generation CPU's with encrypted instruction sets already been deployed, we would have never found out about NSAKEY."

I'm not a big technogeek, but I presume that 10 years having passed since that article was written the next generation of CPUs is long outdated and far more sophisticated means of snooping have been incorporated into WinTel machines.

Would Linux be any better?

thnks try to contact/interview Duncan Campbell. When Thatcher was PM, Duncan was
already hot on the needle of NATO/NSA and nuclear missile exercises inside the UK.

exactly we were lucky to even find out about it. assume they have access to every machine. assume it. the only secure method is the talmudic mouth to ear, ear to mouth oral tradition. thats why the zionists are no1 in the game and we are so far behind, playing catch up.
