You're correct in accusing me of using Philips Hue as click bait. Just updated the post title. I was using 'Philips Hue' more like as adjective rather than a proper noun.
My thoughts on this: Seeing ESP8266 in the title itself implies DIY or Hack to me. Practically everything using ESP8266 out there is a DIY project as of today. When your see things like 'OTA firmware updates for ESP8266' or 'HTTPS server' using ESP8266, doesn't mean those are secure in anyway. I'm not really trying to attack the Philips Hue lineup here. My intention is to get people to stop making proof of concept DIY IOT experiments and show them that with the HomeKit API this can be actually useful at home. And if the words 'Philips Hue' help me get some attention to this matter, why not?
