No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Nah, I have a bunch of stuff and couldn't care less. If someone wants in my home they'll take out a window. Nobody is zero daying their way past a lock ๐คฃ
And what's the worst an internet connected thermostat could do, discomfort you to death? If someone got into my Google account past 2fa etc id have bigger worries.
I think that example is probably the most serious one. If you live in regions that go to -40c you most definitely don't want your thermostat to just stop heating the house.
At the same time, it's nice to be able to check what temperature it's at while you're away. I have a zwave thermostat myself, gives "smartness" without the reliance on someone else's computer.
