I'd be inclined to shun almost any Internet enabled device. Until proven
otherwise, I'd assume all the software is a Jenga tower of Java
libraries and code snippets copied off the Internet.

frames to doorbells to game consoles and of course all sorts of
streaming video devices, and the smartphones and tablets and smartwatches.
I’m not talking about the 85 year olds who don’t want to look up stuff
on Google and Wikipedia. These are usually 30 year olds. I want to
ask them, if you don’t like technology, why do you buy so much of it?
I assume the car industry went through the same thing, getting people
who don’t know an engine from a transmission and barely know which
hole to put the gas in, to buy cars and drive them.
