    It’s Bluetooth here, and possibly. Apple was handling a class of pairing attempts poorly. Android could do the same thing. It currently seems like that’s not the case, and there are a lot of eyes looking at what’s open source.

      Maybe, but Android keeps rewriting its Bluetooth stack from scratch

      Android’s current Bluetooth stack has only been around for like 2.5 years

      So it’s also less battle tested, probably, although less likely to have memory corruption bugs
