    And in the mid 2010s it got worse where everyone and their mother put bluetooth in anything and everything. IoT became accessible, only to be used in the dumbest way to try and get rich from Kickstarter.

      Followed of course by an obligatory Shark Tank appearance asking $2 million for 4% of their product where all profits go to the Zuck (the cost per customer acquisition is the entire margin and its all spent through facebook and ig ads)

        The goal isn’t to make money now, it’s to have growth, the sacrosaint nectar of gods, to be bought and have a big payout.

      I got an oral thermometer with Bluetooth.

      It doesn’t have any sort of a display on it. The only way to use it is with their app.
