Foolish because of what? The things you imagine might be true, the things that could have been invented, the color of the sun as it sets down over the ocean? In the real world this update makes your CPU slower, this is a fact backed up with real data, not emotion and fairy tales. Another cold fact is that there isn't one documented instance in which this vulnerability has been used to take over a system without prior consent of the owner or in any other way that was not just a test. So where is the threat, aside from your own imagination, where is real data? I have seen people work for weeks at a time, to get 5% more processing power from their CPU with overclocking, wasting time to do numerous tests and tweaking and here you are calling me foolish because I don't want to install a piece of software that can degrade my CPU performance with as much as 30% because something, somewhere, while floating over the rainbow, in certain circumstances could somehow use this to infect my computer...
