@Viss@mastodon.social Not quite. Unless this is a new technique, the device just sends model and manufacturer IDs. Windows then connects to the Windows Update service to see if there are drivers and installs them. And there is woefully inadequate vetting of the auto-installed stuff. I remember the Razer instance of this because it came a couple of weeks after Microsoft bought Razer cameras for all employees, which was hilarious timing.
