You should all be aware that Lenovo (the owner of Motorola Mobility) has some dark moments in its past.

Asus does this on many of their consumer motherboards now, too.

Asus has been doing it since before that article was written. It's amazing that a "put rootkit here" Windows feature has been around for so long.

The Gigabyte motherboard on my system does this as well. I turned it off immediately, of course.
