I agree with your statement on modern journalism, I think it is fair the website appleinsider.com focused on apple products.

Sure that’s fair. Just don’t bury it halfway down the article and hand wave it away.

A more honest and still clickbaity headline would be “many devices, including iPhones, susceptible to attack by this $170 device”
