Re: The stupid, the lazy and the first mover
A person I know has his Echo connected to his lights. Sounds great: "Alexa I'm home" and the lights in the hall, living room go on. He has the same thing at night "Alexa Goodnight" turns the lights in the living room off, and the Hall, Stairs and Bedroom lights on.
He thought this was great until we left the house together "Alexa, goodbye", and all the lights went out. When I pointed out to him that he had just told Amazon and everyone who can hack its IoT that the house was now empty, he was all "No, it's from Amazon, that makes it secure".
