I'm surprisingly okay with this. We all know the IoT hype has given rise to many, many incredibly insecure, often non-GPL compliant slapped together Linux SoC's hooked up to whatever IO a regular appliance could have. The manufacturers and developers have not given any consideration for real security because they haven't had a reason to yet. Sure, every other week a security researcher pwns another device and leaves a random manufacturer I've never heard of with egg on its face but unfortunately that doesn't seem to stop the global trend. This might. I wonder if anything similar has happened before.
