       @cwebber Part of me feels like if it applies to wireless keyboards it's going to apply to wired ones too given a much better antenna.

       @cwebber even if the mouse protocol is insecure I lock my devices when I'm not there so you can only engage in active attacks and only if you can pull up the onscreen keyboard

       @datarama @cwebber well, that would be non-use. i am being somewhat facetious but "use without input" would be like configuring some automated services and then disconnecting everything
