Anyone living in a cold country should have this very process etched into their DNA: their ancestors will have had to prepare well in advance of winter if they wanted to survive winter and remain comfortable during it.
Remember: neither myself or WesternSemiConductor have made a claim or even stated our belief that an intelligence agency is behind this. We're just presenting plausible scenarios.
You don't have to have beliefs about things which you don't have all the facts for. It's OK to not know the answer and just consider the options.
If you look into these subjects a little you'll find that there is a well documented history of infiltration, sabotage, co-opting and manipulation that occurs in the shadows. It doesn't take a genius to see that if you can get secret hardware level vulnerabilities into Intel chips that only "your side" knows about, you have a very powerful tool at your disposal with almost limitless applications.
