I abandoned x86 a few years back, because I'm far less concerned about China knowing my secrets than I am with the Five Eyes countries violating my privacy. The likelihood of the nsa or gchq tampering with an allwinner or freescale chip en route is much lower than with Intel or AMD. And far more resources would be involved than would be financially reasonable to tailor an operation for a small-potatoes corporation running an all-ARM setup like mine.

So I'm seeing it as a decrease in attack surface, overall.
