The manufacurer and product from USB device itself are usually not particularly

if the device is too now to be in database.

This last sentence doesn't make much sense.

URLs aren't accessible for me, but I guess this is text-only anyway,
so why couldn't it be part of the message?

Bare with me as I'm not that familiar with udev API, but does this
make sense for USB devices only?

Other than that, the vendor name looks like a output-only, so it can
be changed and apps shouldn't rely on it.
