this begs the question: Which machines are NOT vulnerable?

I'd say that, at least for running machines, some precautionary
measures should be possible to take to thwart hackers that try to rob
your machine from under your fingertips.

Eg. a driver that wipes sensitive kernel memory areas after forcefully
halting most tasks and doing a basic flushing of disk buffers...
