It's still possible to monitor that traffic, especially at the corporate firewall level, or use a Raspberry Pi, or use an old, pre-ME computer.

Until there is evidence, this is technically just a government conspiracy theory.

It isn't a conspiracy when the feared idea has been confirmed. There is a separate os running on the cpu to monitor and control each and every single one of new intel machines.

Right, but there's no confirmation of any remote access or spying going on.
