@lupyuen Our tech is becoming increasingly fragile. In many respects we're going backwards instead of forwards. The producers don't care, of course, because it creates vendor lock-in. The consumers don't care, on the whole, as they don't do any risk assessment. They probably aren't even cognisant of the risks. Even tech-savvy folk have a tendency to ignore downsides as they embrace the latest shiny. It all feels like we're in a giant mudslide towards the cliff.

@lupyuen that is exactly why I don't buy any #smarthome device that requires cloud access 🥴
