No I'm telling you this is not that big of a deal and any device like this (especially with the stock firmware) you use probably has even more unpatched vulnerabilities.
Also I didn't say anything about what the media response would be like, I'm only speaking about the vulnerability itself. Your jump to make this political is just reactionary. Yes theres more attention on vulnerabilities from Chinese company built devices but thats nothing new.
My whole point was about the double standard applied to US and Chinese tech. You were specifically asking what the outcry would be over, and you yourself admit that there would indeed be outcry in the west if it was a Chinese company. The fact that you don't get the political angle here is entirely a you problem.
