Intel Publishes Open-Source PSE Firmware

Just my thought. But I guess that would reduce trust from the fraction of users that actually see it as a feature. The blocking piece that is seen as anti-theft by those could seem easier to break (even if only in appearance) if open sourced.
Note I'm 100% pro removing that, there's a whole bunch of bricked laptops in my country because the State program that provided them was dismantled and the unblocking servers tore down. They were supposed to be definitely unlocked when kids finished school, but that didn't happen. But I can see how companies may want to block stolen laptops and they wouldn't want the IME open.

To me that sounds more like the Intel Theft Deterrent program than Management Engine.

Hopefully this will encourage AMD to follow suit.

AMD (Dr. Lisa, Robert Hallock, James Prior, and others) knows we want this :-(

Oh, sorry, I thought that was enforced by the ME. Is it not?
