"Smart home" is underrated imo. It's just the current set of "smart" appliances aren't that useful yet -- but the popularity of Alexa shows we're getting there.
For me the problem is not so much that they're not useful as that they're not secure. I would never let an IoT device into my house.

Not even like Nest devices? They offer two factor authentication, etc now...

I think there is some market education needed on security too. People take any technology breach in the world as a red flag for the technology they use and as a result become risk averse.

@BassamMani what’s your take ? -
I agree w/
@paulg 2 things hinder the next form of digital revolution: 1) security: they‘re built to ease our lives not increase our digital surface of attack 2) true fusion: one where ‘smart’ devices work together towards a singular ‘smart’ home Whoever gets this balance, wins!

Not to mention having your home's essential functions bound to an external provider that might at any point in time decide to cancel their service without providing any alternatives
