IME is likely not a case of Intel "not taking security seriously". It's almost certainly a case of doing what FiveEyes demanded of them.

You're probably right.

I still hope it's true, and that it's catastrophic for Intel. No change can happen otherwise.

If Intel aren't fighting against 5eyes then they aren't taking security seriously.

this was my first thought as well, but surely there would have been some hint of it in snowden docs or the recent wikileaks cia malware docs?
