What you mean to say is completely correct. What you actually said is wrong, there's a huge delta between hostile and unproven. The pump firmware should assert it's own safety and sanity checks. Which is different from hostility.
- jacquesm 3y agoYou are making the assumption that the app is the real app and that the app is under the control of the user. Both may turn out not to be the case so 'hostile' would seem to me to be the only proper classification unless the communications have ways of verifying that either of the above scenarios is not in play. Better safe than sorry with this stuff.
- chlorion 3y agoI think it should assume its hostile since physical harm could be done in the case of someone hijacking the app. The users phone could be stolen, or the device compromised, or many other things. A compromised device should not be able to cause physical harm to a human! edit: someone else already said basically the same thing but I didn't see it because I opened this tab a long time ago and didn't refresh it!
- jacquesm 3y agoNp, happens to me all the time. I have a ton of tabs open and re-visit them during the day and I always forget to refresh first.
