Are you sure about the keyboard? Mine disconnects from BT when it's plugged in (and continues to work)

• notinmykernel 2y ago
  You still have to switch it "on" which means it is emitting a BT signal. It leaves users vulnerable to keylogging via BT. It's well-attested and was reported to Apple in Q4 2022. Ideally the on/off switch would not control both the power and BT.

    It still transmits keystrokes over Bluetooth even when it's connected over USB?
    • notinmykernel 2y ago
      Yes. It is possible intercept keystrokes for an Apple keyboard that has been previously connected to a computer or laptop. It was tested as part of this vulnerability for Apple shortcuts: https://jestlandia.github.io/apple-shortcuts-vulnerability-12032024.html https://jestlandia.github.io/apple-shortcuts-vulnerability-1....

        Do you have a link that actually corroborates and explains this?
        • notinmykernel 2y ago
          I can make one, yes. We thought it was irresponsible to release it at the time. But hey, times change. Will update shortly.
