Side Note: Isn’t it just dandy that Google security researchers are the ones finding all the PhD level zero days now a days? Like I’m sure they never use them before reporting them...

And while Google has been accused of various things over the years, like the Wi-Fi sniffing thing, actively exploiting someone else’s system would be on another level entirely. Of course, the same smarts that make complex exploits achievable can also make them harder to detect – but only to a point. It’s almost impossible to bring the risk to zero.
