What excites me about AR is the augmented part! What we've seen so far is more toy like. But imagine an AR tutorial app that guides you through replacing the brake pads on your car. It could point the the exact spot for the next step,

Why not? Create an open standard (or use an existing one) to interface with other devices. It's harder than a walled garden you control but very feasible. Heck most software engineers could put together a smart lock and app to do this

Isn't this because writer pay plummeted? Skilled technical people don't write for publications because the pay is terrible compared to even an entry level tech job. The best articles I see anymore are by guest writers who do work

A UUID would work fine. Every product gets a UUID and it goes into a public DB hosted by the manufacturer (or a 3rd party that verifies who is publishing the data). Then anyone can query against that database to verify if a product is legit
