No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I work in IT and things only need to be connected to the internet if there is a truly compelling reason for it
you mean I dont need to have my toilet connected to the internet with a massive, gaping back door that could easily allow my entire network to be compromised, followed shortly there after my email and critical financial accounts?
You say this is a joke and yet...

That was the joke.
Tbh...I feel in general people should protect more their internally networks as well... So even if one device gets compromised, the effects of it are limited.
agreed.
But theres no point in literally putting yourself infront of the gun and waiting for the hammer to fall by using some of these stupid devices regardless.
