I don't understand the mindset of people who tolerate ads. No way I'm ever hooking up a smart tv to my network!
Most smart products are security nightmares, too. Smart TVs, refridgerators, thermometers, all of them have OS's that arent regularly updated, dont give the user any way to peek into the system, (you get a virus on your computer, and you generally know pretty quick) and usually lack the security features that your phone or PC may have. They're easy points for your network to be compromised.
The Internet of Things is more like the Internet of Shit.
