How to change CPU name on mbp 14” M1 Pro?
Hey so I have a mac and I would like to change cpu name to “unknown” or smth similar, this is so that whoever is using this particular mac when I lend it can’t find out what cpu it is having, as I won’t really like to disclose it for personal reasons. How do I go about this? I found this thing on github. Does it work for the latest macos? Really need help on this one.

Next "issue" needed to be fixed (more for eye candy puproses) was the CPU name fix as it reported as "Unknown" in About This Mac panel. For this i used CPUName script to edit the plist for me. Link for CPUName : https://github.com/corpnewt/CPU-Name

Ryzentosh ~ Ventura 13.3 ~ Ryzen 5 5600x ~ RX 5600XT ~ B550 ~ OC 0.9.1 ~
Audio output is great btw but the lack of mic input on Ryzentoshe's made me buy a USB WebCam with builtin microphone which is working without any effort. FeatureUnlock kext (1.1.4 latest commit) https://github.com/dortania/build-repo/releases/download/FeatureUnlock-ec664b2/FeatureUnlock-1.1.4-RELEASE.zip made Continuity Camera work flawless.
