Someone who lives in San Francisco, where Internet access is apparently bulletproof.
I wonder if security systems work the same way. Robbers want to take in a smart home so they just cut the coaxial line and the whole thing goes 404, unlocks all the doors, turns off monitoring and can't alert emergency services.
Hopefully they have the decency to feed the dog.

- FussyZeus 10y agoI was being facetious. :) Imagining the world where if the Internet goes out all the smart home stuff just turns off.
