Good. There is legitimately zero reason for a gas pump to use Bluetooth. Whatever companies decide to install pumps that don't use a wired connection for their control deserve all the consequences that come with that. The only way to ensure security is a wired internal connection with no external access. You know, the way these pumps were all originally controlled centrally before "modern" technology. There is no reason a pump should have Bluetooth anywhere near anything that can control them.
