USB is an attack vector; if it's not exploiting your USB driver it's connecting your data pins to mains power. Keyboards are an air gap.

Isn't the keyboard connected to the computer via USB?

If I have access to the keyboard, I have access to a USB cable plugged into the computer, right?

Perhaps I misunderstand something....

I meant the reverse; the computer attacking the robot using it
Uhhhhh, thanks. That makes a lot of sense!
