This is EXTREMELY old news and wasn't at all secret, except to journalists who don't pay attention and some crackpot who thinks he's just discovered something.
(I love this quote from another alarmist article: "...it also allows hackers or NSA snoops to view the entire contents of somebody’s hard drive, even when the power is off....")

Didn't catch the one about the power being off and snagging the data.
There was that AP reporter that did notice her laptop would turn itself on in the middle of the night and the HD was going nuts....

The only thing going nuts are these reporters.
I could only think that their Windows update was set to automatic and Windows normally wakes up the computer at 3AM (by default) and runs updates.

Citation from an older and more credible source?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I can't give a citation, but I knew about this in 2010 when in the pre-release technical data Intel published (several articles do point out that Intel talked about this in 2011 when the chips were released in 2011.) This wasn't a secret. Moreover, the claims about what this does make absolutely no sense and appeal to people completely ignorant of how computers work.

Jim Stone has just discovered the secret (or so he says)...
Jim Stone doesn't actually provide any evidence for this...
...the NSA forbid the disclosure of this info in order to have a backdoor into every computer...
Misleading title and plainly silly content to go with it.

Did you think you were getting a great deal there for a minute. Sorry about that.

No worries. I get my deals via the Intel employee store purchase as I work for them.

I saw Mcafee on your profile, guess you moved up in the world to Intel. Good stuff.

No, McAfee is an Intel company.

Imagine it äs digital Lego playing.
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."
