Yes, that’s what I’ve gathered.
Even if a home pc is clean, the real danger would seem to be ‘out there’ on all the big servers.
I suppose a guy’s better off not worrying too much about it and just trying to avoid any of those named bastards in future.
It’s not like I have anything worth hacking anyway .. lol :)
Thanks for the reply.

The potential for disaster is really scary, even if you are just an average guy with no thing worth hacking.

The malware of the chip could be designed to activate via an online signal command to take over control of your PC and use a weapon to attack networks and online sites via everything from a simple flooding of bandwidth type denial of service attacks to more sophisticated schemes by which an adversary takes control of the computer, turns it into a zombie that links up with other zombies to create a organic cloud type super computing network that could do some serious damage
