I hope you aren't implying that I dispute any of that.
With IoT, you greatly enable remote detonation of explosive devices built into any IoT device. You are no longer limited to telecommunication devices. Solar panels are reported to have exploded. That's because they can be put on a network.
Do you want China to be able to manufacture everything to be like this?
We need regulations that all wireless operations are clearly disclosed and able to be turned off without the device turning them back on later. We also need a product that can detect wireless network activity.
But the main thing is to make electronics in Western countries so that bomb implants are rare and operations like this have a smaller impact.
