  It’s crazy to me that people allow a corporation with a vested interest in selling all the data it can about you to have cameras and microphones places all over their homes.

    But what about the convenience?

      I use Home Assistant as my “main” smart home server then have HomeKit on iOS, macOS connect to it.

      You don’t need Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft involved at all if you don’t want to. In fact, with Matter it’s easier than ever to get away from Big Tech.

      Convenience is a legitimate reason. Some people don’t want to do research, they want to go to best buy or amazon and buy everything in whatever ecosystem they know.

    Not to mention the fact that, Google being Google, this is going to be shitcanned in a couple of years, anyway.

    The problem is that people don’t know or don’t care about a corporation selling their data.

  For the next 3 to 4 years (if you will be lucky), then they will pass to something new and they will simply kill it, like they done with a lot of other projects.
