For that you'd need to hack Intels infrastructure and get access to the private keys.

I'm creating a startup to do just that. There's both huge upside[$$$], but also some legal risk. If this appeals to you and you're an innovator in the social engineering space lmk.

How exactly do you intend to accomplish this? Sneak into a data center and hack their build servers?

Probably the keys are on well-guarded offline HSMs.

Are there rules/standards for how these top secret keys are stored? HDCP, Mediavine, keys to the Internet, etc. Sure, you could keep it locked in a Scrooge McDuck security vault, but you need to be able to burn the key into hardware/software, meaning it ultimately needs to be distributed across many machines, greatly increasing the number of people with potential access.

Or on an S3 vault somewhere.

After hearing that American nuclear launch codes were all zeroes for decades, nothing surprises me.
