Negative, sir. Actually, I was responding to the points you had made. I still trust his investigation and I find it to be significant even if he didn't address all the concerns you raised (which are outside of the area of software engineering). He doesn't need to address outside issues (like the physical safety of the device) to validate his findings or concerns.
Still, since you invited, I'll talk more about my own concerns. Do I trust Wacom as a company, as a whole? I think it depends on how they respond to this, right? Do I still trust them to make a tablet that doesn't have the problems you raised with "electric shock hazards, sharp edges"? Yes. At this moment, do I trust Wacom in the area of data collection? No, that seems to me like a questionable decision. I want to know more. I don't think I want an accessory manufacturer to compile a dossier of what programs I use at what time and from what (partially masked) IP address. More so when they're not being up-front about it (certainly from a layperson's perspective). I'm also not very confident right now that the behavioral data will stay within Wacom's walls and go no further.
In fact, I'm forwarding this to my CISO's office for further evaluation. Is that bad in some way?
