Another reason not to use intel chips or windoze! Buy AMD and
run Linux! You'll never regret it.

Definitely good advise. However, intel has had a similar chip that sits on top of their processor for years already. No one knows what it does or what its capabilities are. Now they probably have two spy components. You really need two machines. One never connected to the internet that is VeraCrypt whole disk encrypted and another computer for the internet.
