Comment on Are BLUFFS attacks still a vulnerability to the average Bluetooth user?
Rebels_Droppin@lemmy.world 1 year agoThanks for responding, I don’t necessarily have any risk, but just didn’t want to open myself up to anything since I didn’t quite understand what information could be taken. Better safe than sorry approach you know?
But good to know that in being selective in permissions can mitigate some issues. I worry about a few family members who are not tech literate at all and use rail travel for work that puts them around people in masse and frivolously give permissions to their devices in different vehicles.

Yea, “frivolous” is the part that’s concerning. Perfect description of how average users approach tech. I’ll be borrowing that!
Guess I need to write up something for family and friends, a good summary of BT risks and how to manage it. Sigh.
