Yeah, I think IoT is mostly bullshit that doesn't add much/any particular value. But you know what I do need? Windows in my house that either close automatically when it rains, or when I tell them all to via an app or something. Then I can open all 20 of back up when I want. or maybe open them 5%, or 20%, or all the way, or drop half way, and open the bottom halfway. Know why this will never happen? It's expensive to manufacture & install, the profit margins are way low, and it needs to be secure, meaning it should never call home to google. The opportunity cost of doing that is too high vs. just making some useless gimmick that sends user data back to Big Ad Tech so they can farm it in their high profit margin ad business... That, and maybe I'm an old fashioned edge case that just likes fresh air when the weather is nice. And I live where I could use this for most of the summer, as it's not usually too hot, and it rains all the fucking time.
