minus-squareLrdThndr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoAnd what about the zigbee hub, assuming you didn’t know enough to use homeassistant or some such? Or a wifi bulb? Point is, consumer smart electronics don’t have the same attention to security paid to them. Fwiw, I’m not anti-smart device. I run HA and have all kinds of smart crap, so clearly I accept at least part of the risk. But saying “it’s just a light bulb” is disingenuous as best.
