Old news. MS has already patched this if you were part of the pre-release patch adopters back in December.

This honestly doesn't amaze me though; there was an intel chip backdoor already, this is just another layer of BS.

No. Read the whole thing.

From what I read my old 32-bit Xeon desktop machines are safe from this bug. This tablet, I dunno - but more and more I'm avoiding 'new tech' & just bailing on sites that are painfully slow from all the bloat, JavaScript, embedded videos, etc. Most of it I block, but a lot of sites don't even load without enabling some stuff - and honestly I get more and more frustrated at hitting a site that references 50 other sites to load crap.

I would if the site didn't spam bomb my phone.

I stand by what I said.
