Intel has a habit of trickling down features of "business chips" to the consumer chips. If I'm not mistaken, they may even be the same chips, Intel just disables those features for lower-end chips. So it's just a matter of time.

I think it's right to be very suspicious of these chips, especially since Intel has been awfully quiet despite all the accusations, and we do know that NSA has been trying to get "encryption hardware vendors" to subvert the encryption for them.
