You know, o e great way to help with making a device that doesn't get hacked, is not telling the world it is intended to not get hacked. When people say "this can't be hacked" I imagine a bunch of 5 year olds being told they aren't allowed to take a cookie from the jar. No better way to ensure they'll try than to draw attention to it.
Not a bad strategy if used appropriately. Get the attention of hackers/crackers so they find all the vulnerabilities and then plug them until they cant do it any more.
Unless the hacking occurs while in the use of clients and then there's a media outbreak of, they promised. ...but...
Also as an engineer it always grates me when someone says a product is unbreakable. Nothing man made is unbreakable because every material has a breaking point. It may be a lot more sturdy than competition but its not unbreakable. I know it's better marketing and I'm nit picking but it just bothers me for some reason.

Well yes, there is that haha.
Completely understandable. I'm also incredibly sceptical of products that promise absolutes.
