Can the president not declare emergency and bypass the laws? The laws may not help much

Hypothetically, if i were in OP's shoes and 'really' scared, I would be going to a genetic doctor instead of conducting my own research. (i would still look up stuff, but that would be too risky to depend on)

as someone who closely works on qualcomm baseband processors, i can say that security is one of the top priorities of qualcomm. There are whole bunches of teams dedicated to sec/vuln analysis. Not saying that the issues mentioned in the article did not occur...but I believe that those probably occured in older chips (a few generations older)

perfectly describes some of the top mobile/chipset companies i have worked for. Some of the code is so horrible that you feel it might be worth the time rewriting it. But time is too precious...nobody has time to step back and analyze or point fingers. just get the code fix and ship to it the customer.
