Intel Builds Sandy Bridge With a DRM Tollbooth

Also now confirmed is that the new architecture includes "features"
such as integral display adapters and memory controllers, etc., and
even apparently built-in "self-destruct" timers for content.
These of course are only the details we're being told about. My guess
is that Intel will attempt to also position this tech with promises of
other sorts of file and document "security" as well. Could there also
be undisclosed goodies addressing government surveillance concerns,
buried in the silicon? Silly to even fantasize along those lines of
course, right?
