Looks like we really need to consider sandboxing on the hardware component level.<p>The WiFi components shouldn&#x27;t need to see anything that isn&#x27;t about to be sent over the radio. DMA is important for performance but there are solutions restricting which devices can read and write memory.<p>Also we really need to sandbox SIM cards, the level of access that those have is terrifying.
