Sorry to drop HN links so often, but this on Intel's 'remote management'
seemed pertinent: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11747487

Hopefully awareness levels will rise sufficiently to spark some more
action. It's probably likely over time.

For now, libreboot machines offer a way out, but also a way back in time. No
hi-res screens, no 2-in-1 form-factor, no fanless running...

I mean, we could rely on the BIOS setting to disable AMT, but how many
of us actually trust that to do as it says?
