Seriously. They already get caught uploading everyone’s private credentials once before, one would have to be a particularly gullible rube to trust grok again. Especially with musk in charge.

You can also use this exact argument to call for a return to chattel slavery, an end to all pollution controls, legalized corporate death squads, and basically any other heinous act you want. At some point you have to restrain the actions

If you're really looking for causes, the largest one is price optimization. But, I think one missing piece between architects and the general public is how architecture students are taught to design (and thus, see ) buildings first th

Republican appointed official behaves like a petulant child - how shocking. If you want this embarrassing behavior to end, vote for the adults in the room in the midterms and demand accountability. Otherwise it will continue to get worse.

How do you know that not connecting it is sufficient to stop the spying? There are a few large IoT-focused networks like Amazon Sidewalk where conceivably the smart TV could connect to them if you don't connect it to your home wifi. I
