Forgive me if I am being naive, but won't this mean we are now going to have a slower processor than we paid for, making Intel owners eligible for participation in a class-action lawsuit involving not getting what we paid for or false advertising or something like that? If I bought a car with X horsepower, and suddenly something was found wrong with it and it had to be modified to work, and was suddenly X - 10%, I'd expect compensation. Their flaw is essentially going to make it so people will have to upgrade to keep up with current tasks. How is this at all fair? They can be lazy, then expect more sales?
The ramifications of someone looking at, downloading, or even uploading something illegal with your internet can get you in serious trouble, I would think. I appreciated the kind-heartedness of the idea, but I would recommend against it personally.
