Intel's actions will go down

[Lonni J Friedman]

Slashdot still exists?  People still read it?  Wow.

As for the hardware bug (and that's really what it is), The Register
is notorious for using clickbait headlines to attract traffic.  Not
trying to diminish the severity of the issue, but reading TheReg will
convince you that the world is ending, and everything sucks.  If the
problem is truly as bad as it sounds, Intel will be compelled to do
something.  The last thing they want is a massive class action
lawsuit, or huge corporate and govt entitities suing them.
