I agree this is troubling, more for what it doesn’t (for obvious reasons) say rather than for what it does. That there are communications networks, computers, servers, etc onboard should come as a surprise to no one. But that in no way implies that these systems were somehow access inflight. Not saying it’s impossible, just unlikely as hell. Anyone who’s worked around the aviation industry knows the kind of hoops manufacturers have to jump thru, not to mention CMMI Level V and all the rest of the standards that systems are designed and tested to.
