difference is that without a dedicated access token they are unable to receive device messages. While in theory this
does make them unable to see encrypted messages, this is not designed to be a security mechanism.
- An appservice trying to log in as a user will always create a new device, which means the user would be informed of the
new device on their existing sessions. It should be very obvious if a malicous appservice is creating new devices on your account.
In conclusion this MSC only automates the creation of new devices for users inside an AS namespace, which is something
a server admin could already do. Appservices should always be treated with care and so with these facts in mind the MSC should
be considered secure.
