Okay we need to talk about this because in my opinion this hasnt become a boomer opinion that, as proven over and over again, is just a better and smarter decision. Most of things that are “smart” dont need to be. Why does a fridge, toaster, TV, matress or oven need to be connected to the internet??! For what?!

I’ve recently seen an add stating that, big brand washing machine have WiFi, we have quality and low pricesbut indeed, it’s getting crazy, and what happens when you change ISP?
I do not know what happens during an ISP change, but i do know that during the recent amazon server outage, these smart appliances stopped working. There was a case where someone with a smart matress (yeah apperently that exists), couldnt sleep because the matress was launched into a weird W shape position and heated itself up.

Well that’s a new nightmare fuel for me. Glitchy mattresses.
I feel like I’m pretty tech-savvy… which is why I don’t want software in anything where plain old physics will do the job. Software breaks.
