It's a firmware update, not software.
Until someone provides solid, substantiated proof that Intel was somehow involved, it's best to avoid the accusation entirely. It doesn't do anyone any good.

Yes, perhaps I'm overreacting. Intel is known for employing truthful and honest business practices, and this would be a big stain on their otherwise clean name.
I can't help but wonder, when I take into account everything that was laid out, who gets to profit from such "terrible news" about AMD processors?
1. Marketing-type videos produced by a previously-unknown security research company
2. Extremely short 24 hour notice to AMD before the "security issues" are publicized
3. Hyped up "security issues" which require ADMINISTRATIVE access to exploit, at which point your computer security is already down the toilet
....
Just seems like an attempt to slow down the AMD sales, probably manipulate stock prices etc
