Time to sue Intel for releasing chips that process our inputs as we request.

Well, no, see that's a great example of why this is a problem. If Intel sells you a CPU, it doesn't need a license to your data, because you give your data to your CPU in your computer. It would, in fact, be a huge red flag if Intel suddenly wanted a license to process your data, because they only need that if they're sending your data to them for processing.

(IANAL, corrections welcome if you can actually point to a law that says otherwise)

Sorry, I meant my comment to be taken sarcastically. I agree with everything you said.
