Not so sure. If a house is designed to have as much surveillance capability and access points to gain as much info on you as possible - like if Facebook were to design a house to collect user info on the inhabitants - that would absolutely be “evil” in many peoples eyes.
The real question is do all these “smart” devices actually improve people’s well being? Or is it all marketing magic bullshit with negligible end- user benefits at the expense of more privacy invasions?
I don’t want my house cooperating with big brother, and that’s what many smart devices seem more than willing to do.
