Can I then file patents for 'internet connected X', for all X, and expect every tech company who figures out how to actually build the thing to pay me royalties

Can I then file patents for 'internet connected X', for all X, and expect every tech company who figures out how to actually build the thing to pay me royalties? Sonos had a first movers advantage which they exploited with an over priced product. Now they're having trouble competing so they turn to the courts instead of making a better product. I have to say that taking Google to court seems like an all or nothing strat, given the resources their opponents bring to the table; a move that only makes sense when you run out of other options. I'd short Sonos.
