Deep dive into Intel Management Engine disablement

Starting today, our second generation of laptops (based on the 6th gen Intel
Skylake platform) will now come with the Intel Management Engine neutralized
and disabled by default. Users who already received their orders can also
update their flash to disable the ME on their machines.

In this post, I will dig deeper and explain in more details what this means
exactly, and why it wasn’t done before today for the laptops that were
shipping this spring and summer.
