Personnel
gollark: No, you're right, it is on chipset.
gollark: No, it's on-CPU, not the chipset.
gollark: It is, at least, not used as part of some commercially sold remote management product like Intel's ME is, as far as I know.
gollark: Does it? I thought it ran with basically the same "literally everything" perms as the Intel ME.
gollark: Bad?
