Ask HN: How to know if laptop enrolled in Intel Management Engine?
I am looking to purchase a old laptop from what seems to be a reseller of decommissioned laptops.
I read about Intel Management Engine and how it is a backdoor at the CPU level and does is not installed at the operating system level.
I tried googling this but how would I know if the laptop is still enrolled into some network? I would hate if some sysadmin could remotely do stuff to my PC.
