Nitropad Intel ME neutering

[acharya.sa...@gmail.com]

Disabling Intel ME completely will shut off the processor completely and so, the malicious part of the code has been suppressed according to the information given in the below link

https://github.com/osresearch/heads-wiki/blob/master/Clean-the-ME-firmware.md

Does ME cleaning achieve removing completely the access of it over hard disk files or is it just a better but incompletely secure state than Intel ME complete as in other laptops?

Depends on the processor.
Always better than ME complete - after flashing ME is good to boot, but
then disabled, so no access to HD files.
Swapping out WiFi card will also stop use of WiFi by ME.
