No, as stated in the article, it’s the sensor manufacturers that are not properly implementing the security protocol.
So you think that somehow absolves Microsoft how?
It isn’t MS’s screwup. They didn’t build the sensor.
They didn’t build the sensor, but they sourced and implemented it in their product. Part of selling products is getting your parts from reputable locations that are building their parts to your specification. This is absolutely still MS’s screwup. And if MS can’t build a device to implement their “security” standard properly. Then you cannot assume that ANY manufacturer can do it properly.
