While we all lament about incentives & regulation which are out of our control, there are still a lot of technical issues to solve, perhaps we can start there.

While we all lament about incentives & regulation which are out of our control, there are still a lot of technical issues to solve, perhaps we can start there.
A few examples:
- It's currently pretty hard to add HTTPS on a router admin page.
- Browsers can't do service detection on a local network, so we have to resort to central servers to manage headless devices (or ugly, unreliable local IPs).
- Punching through firewalls / NAT is still hard, so we again resort to central servers.
It's really fucking hard to do IoT at scale, in a easy-to-use way that's secure and that respects the user's privacy. I think we can solve that.
