minus-square@GreenKnight23link8•15 hours agoI have smart thermostats. I block 100% of their traffic. Why? One winter I woke up to my house being not 70, but 50. BOTH of my units had stalled after a botched firmware update. I can’t trust a multi-billion to fuck my house up while I sleep. not once, not twice. now they are nice glowing thermostats I can see in the dark that my power company paid for. couldn’t be happier since cutting them off.
