@jensorensen@mastodon.social What I wanted: My appliance to let me connect to view and control a few features. What we got: Our appliances let unseen agents of mega-corporations and their licensees to connect to collect nearly unlimited information on us in return for letting us view and control a few features, until one of them decide the steam of information isn't lucrative enough, at which time the service is shuttered and the appliance stops functioning at all.
