"Internet of Things" bluetooth vulnerability found

https://www.technewsworld.com/story/84963.html

How long have I been banging this particular drum? Too long.

A vulnerability concerning a program called "BlueBourne" (an offshoot of Bluetooth, as far as I know) has been found and (thankfully) patched in Google Home and Amazon Echo devices. Cybersecurity experts continue to consider the devices insecure, and I'm inclined to agree. I really do not trust these things. There's so much data in these things and too many security risks for my tastes. 


You know me as Erik Matthew Herrick in class, I sit in the back and find interesting articles.
