    The thing is, we really don’t know what’s in the hardware, how do we know there isn’t a “Intel ME” on your phone that is just hibernating, waiting for the right kill signal?

        The phrase ‘a “Intel ME” on your phone’ is not literally saying that Intel has control over your phone, its alluding to the widely known Intel backdoor, basically using that to point out: “You phone could have something similar”
