Just goes to prove that no matter how benign the tool, some a-hole will find a way to weaponize it.

Please stop using "domestic abuse" as euphemism for domestic violence. The term disguises & minimizes what is happening. If in addition to assault & violence there are other forms of abuse such as stalking then say so. But widespread substitution of "abuse" is problematic.
-
The article specifically mentions other types of abuse (in this case) are more prevalent than violence.

So what causes abuse in the lower middle class and poor? They cannot afford all those gadgets? Whew, thank God we have none of those either.
-
No one said these tools cause the abuse.
The abusers just have new tools to assist in their abuse which is the point. And these are gadgets that are becoming increasingly affordable. - 1 more reply

Who would’ve thought letting more computers and cameras into ones home could turn into something straight out of an episode of black mirror?

Terrible but not surprising. Not sure how you make sure your design team includes someone who has been stalked or lived in an abusive situation but they might have been useful in designing access/security considerations.
