Found this in Lenovo's statement: "We have thoroughly investigated this technology and do not find any evidence to substantiate security concerns."

Were they not doing a massive MITM attack with a public key that many people had access to? I'm a huge Lenovo fan, but ignoring that as a security concern is bull.

Atrocious. Absolutely disgusting behaviour of one of the last remaining companies that create good work laptops (with matte displays). Good thing I bought my Lenovo device without a preinstalled operating system. I happily spend a day manually installing drivers if that prevents my PC from being infected out of the box.

As if WebSense weren't bad enough...

LOL! Priceless to start signing certs with this.
