I mean, would be useful to remote control it to keep an eye on your pets or something like that. Although as long as those device makers don't take security seriously, you're better off getting one that relies on lidar instead.

Rules:

1. What to post?

"Smart" features that stupid, unnecessary, or even harmful.
Devices that are (bad kind of) internet-dependent, harvest data, are a security risk, and such.

2. Behave.

Act like a nice human being.
