Re: So the HomeHub has an undocumented API backdoor
When I did my engineering degree, one first year project was working with a company that made pacemakers. So a fascinating introduction into how to design safety critical devices & much brainstorming to think of ways it could go wrong, and how to prevent it. And appropriately enough, it included some remote control/config capability to keep safe. And then discovering all the ways our body attacks foreign objects, even if their function is to preserve the host.
So Google kinda failed in designing this device, especially whoever signed off on that API.
