I don't understand. Intel has ME, AMD has PSP, neither makes any particular effort to support libreboot (although I'm pretty sure coreboot can work with both if the manufacturer wants, because Chromebooks do that). Unless you believe that Intel is more open, why would you prefer it? It appears to me that they're equally security-unfriendly, but with AMD at least winning on price and performance. |

I agree (although I'm not sure price and performance is significant enough to matter to me), the only reason I would go with Intel is that it's what I've been using for the last 20 years, and it's what I know. I had an AMD one time (late 90s/early 00s) and had a lot of problems with it. I know AMD today is much different than in the past, but I'm still wary whe the investment is one I will need to use for 5 to 10 years.
But if AMD went libre, I'd jump ship.
