Remembering Richard Stallman.

AMD processors in Lenovo servers are found to be tightly bound to the hardware of this particular manufacturer - it will be impossible to use a CPU that has been in a Lenovo server, for example, in equipment from other manufacturers. It will not be possible to "untie" such a processor. In the future, this may also affect AMD chips for desktop PCs and workstations, as well as the entire secondary market of computer equipment.

Here is the famous joke about capital and 300% profit.
From laptop processors, slave owning technologies began to move to the server segment, disgusting.

What else to expect from the Chinese other than copying the most disgusting and repressive practices from other vendors (Dell). I would like to believe that the market will solve it, but, alas, the remaining vendors will most likely start to lock the hardware in the end.

And this is happening at a time of ever worsening economic crisis and a decline in semiconductor production. The "effective management" have already gone crazy. They could at least come up with an unlocking mechanism, so that vendors could unlock the processor for sale on the secondary market for money.

It's a pity that there is no longer any interchangeability in the world, if you look at electronics in various applications.
