Just... why? Like why even try this? At BEST it devolves into a massive IoT botnet of toothbrushes and lightbulbs laundering money from stolen credit cards, more likely it does that AND incentivizes a new golden age of pop-ups, pop-unders, and pages that load other pages in iframes. The naivety of developers astounds me some days.
