That's dystopian commentary, using one sided arguments to dunk on a state built by elections to promote finance feudalism.

zwirbl··on Is Your Bluetooth Chip Leaking Secrets via RF Signals?
I never knew about the 50Mbaud figure, is anything above 10M even achievable in a real world scenario?

It does solve this by having a different topology. It supports a configurable number of streams in each direction, so at least in theory 5.2 surround with a stereo microphone should be possible, we'll see if it's usable

It also supports what is often called 'true wireless' earbuds by default, as each audio sink can stream only the channel it's interested in.

Finally there's all that broadcasting stuff, which works fine in our tests most of the time but also with a myriad of issues, some of them in the spec, others in the Android implementation, which is currently the de facto target to support
