Those new Intel CPUs much likely will suffer from more important risks,
than hacker attacks. The opinion of my crystal ball is, that the
redesign of Intel CPUs, by keeping all the advantages over AMD
CPUs, most likely will lead to serious issues caused by the new design,
even without a hacker attack. My pendulum is still working on its
prophecy. I can't tell you what I know after read tea leaves at full
moon, without killing you after telling you the tea leaves secrets.
