Right, so you're just going off vague generalizations and possibilities. There's an entire army of people looking for vulnerabilities in this area, and they haven't found any. Until you can show a vulnerability for the devices I mentioned, you don't have much of a point.
> and they haven't found any
Why are you so sure? Not everybody shares vulnerabilities with the world. Some people keep them for themselves or sell on the black market. I doubt OnePlus offer a reasonable payment for that.
Because it's not a high target device. Valuable targets are not using outdated OnePlus devices. There might not be money to be made, but there is reputation to be earned by discovering a new vulnerability. I doubt a vulnerability in some old 6T hardware would be worth much, while disclosing it and padding a resume would be.
People who use non-mainstream systems and rely very little on proprietary software are automatically more interesting. They may have something to hide.
