Which is why you trust AMD, a company that's headquartered a whopping 600 second drive away from Intel [0]. How is Intel's stuff backdoored, but AMD's stuff not?

I never said AMD silicon wasn't backdoored. Its a solid bet that it is. I don't trust either, but having a intel chipset and processor together on a edge router sounds like a bad idea to me.

So you don't run ANY intel products? That's quite an accomplishment.

That doesn't follow.
