The post you flagged makes a comment about WIFI on alarm clocks, and the potential for misuse. Isn't it an opportunity to talk about the pros and cons of mandatory WIFI on alarm clocks? Looking at the Author clock, they do have an option to update the device manually, which is nice, so it can operate without needing WIFI. It's a valid concern. My old smart alarm clock would automatically activate bluetooth every time the alarm sounded, and try to connect to the companion app on my phone. It did this even if I didn't use the app, no way to stop it. I suspect the makers of the clock desperately wanted telemetry, and what better way than to ping their app every morning.
