Just A Very Troubling Reminder Of How Even Well Intentioned Endeavors Can Have Far Reaching Ripple Effects

Let us also remember, however, that the commercial dynamic is at play here as well.

[Post Note: And speaking of unintended effects, though one might have expected a good deal more in the sense of anticipating problems, we have the ever present problem now of "The Internet of Things" being left with considerably less interference protection than pretty much everyone would have ever hoped for. But in point of fact this is simply another case of Capitalism not being able to factor in all of the life cycle costs of a product into the purchase price. And so you are left not only vulnerable, but holding the bag for who's going to have to pay to fix the mess that will undoubtedly arise from it all. J.V.]
COULD A STRANGER HIJACK YOUR SMART HOME?



[Post Note: Better to get rid of money altogether. I'm telling you. Keeping this damned system of money fueled mayhem going is simply way more terrible downside than it could ever possibly be worth. J.V.]
