Microsoft may refuse older CPU (security) updates

From Valentine Chatler

The meaning of the system requirements for Windows 11 is not yet fully clear. First, there must be Microsoft’s new operating system Processors Gen1 generation at AMD and up to KP Lake at Intel.

For example, if upgrades to older CPUs need to be better modified or if a security hole only affects an older processor, this build becomes critical. Then we need to see how Microsoft responds.
