I wonder what will happen as China begins producing more of it's own chips that can compete with intel/amd? Also, what happens with risc/arm? and hopefully allowing us as end users to have machines without this shit on it
I would not put any trust in China to not have backdoors in their chips. Historically speaking, they've done this more than once. Frankly I wouldn't trust any large company - many companies have also done this historically and there's an incentive for them to do so, government money and backing.
When did China put backdoors in chips?
and if they did, how will they use it against us? Possible, but so difficult than it is unlikely.
