This is a gen x complaint. Boomers would just ask their kids to set it up because they can't get it to work. Gen x realizes what is going on and that it is bullshit to need an account for a fucking lightbulb.

I think it's a complaint from everyone but Gen z, who are just used to it.

Somewhere between milennial and gen-z here. I can’t fucking stand making more accounts just because companies want to collect data. And neither can my gen-z younger siblings.

Used to it ≠ Not complaining about it
