The chipmaker has reinstated its advertising at Gamasutra, reports The Telegraph. Intel had withdrawn its sponsorship after being targeted by an email campaign by Gamergate supporters, who were angry at Gamasutra's criticism of game culture.

Someone should do one of those classy Vimeo time lapses of Gamergate disbelief slowly turning to rage today. Sigur Ros soundtrack, auroras flickering in the background, etc.
