The worst is when some devices require network access to function, as the only way to interact with them properly is via smart phone - robot vacuums come to mind.

I try to do research ahead of time, but if that kind of "feature" slips past my due diligence, I just return it.

Same. And if I have to call say an HVAC guy or something I'll be annoying the whole time.

"I need whatever you've got that DOESN'T connect to the internet."

"Ok. Here's the thermostat I'll be installing"

"And it doesn't have the ability to access the internet? Like, at all?"

"Yeah."

"Cool."
