The main reason I (literally) threw my Nest thermostat in the trash was that Nest (Google) kept installing updates I couldn't veto, and without exception every update made the device worse. I disabled the wifi for a while but of course then I could no longer control the thermostat with my phone, so eventually I just replaced it with a dumb thermostat and I've not bought a Nest product since.
