What does this have to do with security? Do they expect evil maid attacks on the PS5 people carry around to do their online banking on?

That's a particularly narrow view of what security means.

Peripherals can be used for surveillance, gaining bank account details that way, or to dox content creators, kids, etc.

This is assuming this leak can pivot into malware for userspace in the console, I haven't read yet.
