AMD's price:performance is compelling right now,
and enjoying underdog rising.

It's seen less of the exploit parade than Intel has lately.
That doesn't mean AMD is any better regarding
potential vulnerabilities.

Given that AMD (and Intel, IBM, ARM, Qualcomm, Broadcom, etc)
are all closed HW garbage, there are surely entire classes
and vast mounds of garbage waiting within them to be security
advisoried and exploited, were they only to be opened up.
They have refused to do that for longer than most users
have been alive.

So at this point, people would be better off ignoring
them, and coming together to create something
new for the world...

#OpenFabs , #OpenHW , #OpenAudit

That will be compelling to userbase and markets,
a new class of open underdogs rising.
