>> Apple doesn't make a thermostat but they, along with many others, are moving to Matter. An interoperable, secure, private, open standard i.e. the very opposite of being cloud orientated.
Matter (formerly CHIP)? The protocol whose identity layer is allegedly based on a blockchain [0]? I think it needs the cloud, in the same way Moxie describes it.

- tpetry 5y agoI have not read the specification of matter (which is a joint standard). But Apple‘s custom HomeKit protocol was designed to work without any cloud service by design. I use it without any cloud control, i won‘t be able to control my heater or light from on the go but because of WiFi without any central at my home.
