That’s not how hardware wallets work. It is not just a flash usb that any thing can extract any information from it. It is impossible to access keys from any hardware wallet by normally connecting to a computer. A hardware wallet CAN, however, be brute forced (check Trezor hack on Youtube)

Why can’t they build a back door in the software?
They are not entirely closed source. As far as I know only the security chip is closed source which also the reason why Ledger cannot be brute forced even with physical access to the hardware. All open sourced hardware however can.
Interesting that is news to me. I’ll have to look more into that when I have time. From what I’ve heard the ledger device itself is entirely closed source.
You can check here to see what parts are open source on Ledger.
Bookmarked will check out sometime. I’m just ye of little faith for companies in crypto. Even Coinbase is a security waiting to go wrong and rug pull customer assets.
You and Ledger can say that all you want but there is 0 proof Ledger doesn’t have a back door in their own device… remember the whole open source thing we’re talking about?
