    It’s the main reason why you don’t want household IoT devices on the same network as your trusted devices.

      Yeah, in a perfect world this would be the case. But people want convenience (like a camera in their fridge to see if they need milk or not), consequences be damned. I still have yet to see a proper use case for ~90% of IoT shit out there. Besides harvesting data and / or leaving gaping security gaps, of course.

      Well, they’re fine if they’re on a network with no access to anything, including the Internet.
