"slapping a “smart home” premium onto the monthly rent may let your landlord reverse plunging rents [...] everyone (but you) wins." This seems clueless - if renters don't want Alexa then they will just rent the cheaper places without it. And if renters want it then they also won, by buying something they wanted. And, to head off objections, if renters "are forced to rent" the places with Alexa anyway when they don't want it, then the 'premium' isn't for Alexa and landlords wasted their money.
