Mysterious Mac and PC malware that jumps airgaps?

Please disregard this comment and others I have made in this thread. Or at least read this interchange first:

TL;DR: My reading of the article incorrectly assumed the infection vector was via microphone. It wasn't; the ultrasoncis bit is apparently how the malware communicates (presumably). The tweet referenced in the above link clarifies this.

Please do not upvote my comment further. It is incorrect.

Thank you for this, too often people change their minds (or have their statements disproved) and don't say anything. Thank you for taking the time to "set the record straight" as it were.
