Intel and AMD settled a suit in 2009 : https://www.amd.com/en/corporate/antitrust-ruling

" ... Intel must not ... Intentionally include design/engineering elements in its products that artificially impair the performance of any AMD microprocessor."

If you read Agner Fog's old "Cripple AMD" thread from 2009, when he actually served as a FTC witness, you will see that his later updates in 2010-11 shows no reduction in behavior of this kind on Intel's side. If Intel were to comply, this would've been a solved problem.

What we are seeing has to be a new deal.
