    Why? Because it doesn’t have any Bluetooth to be exploited? Seems the boards have an Infeneon modem on top. Is that any better?

        Uh, it’s going to take me some time to listen to a 90min podcast. I hope they even talk about wifi and bluetooth. Usually that kind of code and intellectual property is a completely different story than your usual microcontroller design. Thx for the link.

          Trust me, it’s worth it. You’re probably right about the WiFi module. I don’t even remember them mentioning it, honestly.

          It’s probably a closed, obfuscated module. Still, I stand by my initial assessment that I’d trust whatever they chose a hell of a lot more than a China-based company like Espressif.

          I can’t wait for end to end open hardware but perhaps I’m a tad breathless over something that doesn’t apply to this article.
