      Okay, but your claim that my comparing Bluetooth to USB being like comparing Bluetooth to TCP is misinformed at best.

          You can disable a USB port and require remote SSH to enable it.

          USB is way safer.

              It does not complicate things in a way that makes things less secure than using Bluetooth 4.0 or earlier.

              USB is way safer.

              It’s amusing that you won’t just give up and admit that the blanket statement is 100% accurate. But you do you; just remind me not to use any services that you’re on the opsec team for.

            You can disable Bluetooth and require remote SSH to enable it… 🙄

            BTW, have you heard about BadUSB?
