should be easy enough to avoid by just not buying computers with that processor

Intel ME / AMD PSP are similar things already on CPUs today, and because pretty much all x86 CPUs have it, it's very hard to avoid it. They're basically builtin Intel/AMD spyware and the only way you can get rid of them is by using something like Coreboot, which has very limited availability

Who's buying 32-bit CPUs anymore?
