    If your alarm clock needs an internet connection then you need an old alarm clock.

      You can get very fancy new alarm clocks that don’t need internet, skill issue. I’m convinced consumer grade IoT tech is some kind of irrational boomer exhibitionism thing

        If I host my own smart home with zigbee devices, does that still count as consumer IoT tech? The zigbee devices themselves are the typical philips hue, ikea tradfi, etc. devices

          No different kind of tech fetish (moving from public exhibitionism to being privately sealed in a latex suit)
