Oh dear

Now it is IoT light bulbs, before that it was other IoT 'things'. Just how long before all those government mandated 'smart' meters are in line to become another plaything of the script kiddies?

Maybe, instead of the GSMA insisting IoT is more than vapourware they should be insisting on tight security for the devices.
