If you have a Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge system then we should be able to disable the ME.

I've been planning to experiment with that anyway. If anyone wants to have a little sunday session on it soon I'd be up for it. I have the required hardware.

Intel ME dumpintel and comments

Dear friends,

many of us speak and write about encryption, about surveillance, about external control. Intel and Samsung, maybe also AMD, IBM/Motorola and others, have it installed. The underlayer between OS and hardware. Totally controlled from outside and independent of BIOS and OS.

Intel implemented it in the i3, i5, i7. Personal PC environment. And servers and workstation? I am sure, it is the same.

The decryption of the encryption makes too much effort. With ME it is easy and allways working. This is the reality, not the future.

Our possible answer: Free technology.
