There are things we can do to help get us out of this Intel ME rut.

* Let AMD know that open-sourcing/disabling PSP is important to you [1].

* Contribute to RISC-V. You can buy a RISC-V SoC today [2]. Does your favorite compiler have a RISC-V backend?

You could contact AMD and show support for open sourcing PSP (their ME equivalent) or having an option to disable it. There is hope: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/5xvn4i/update_corebo...
