"giving the connector that level of admin permissions"

An exploit would not require *being given* that level or permissions but rather *obtaining* that level of permissions, i.e. chaining exploits. If Google can prove that it is not possible that there will ever be an exploit that would give that level of permission which could then be chained then Google would be justified at calling it just a misconfiguration. (Google cannot prove that.)

Even then, I would say it's a design flaw if you allow a configuration that one one would actually want.

I hate the headline, which is crediting Relativity Space to Eric Schmidt.

Eric Schmidt did not found the company, nor did he contribute to the technology, He was just the billionaire who stepped in with funding. Tim Ellis and Jordan Noone should be credited with founding the company and developing the technology.

But we Americans treat billionaires as superhuman rock stars; we don't care who does the actual innovation, we just let the billionaires take credit (and, yes, that applies to Elon Musk as well. From the press, you'd think he's the only person who invented anything or built anything or does anything at Tesla or SpaceX.)
