Yeah, there are definitely things were it being connected is a nice thing. But a lot of things don't need that. Lights are a nice thing to have connected, but what good is a connected toaster if i still have to put in the toast and take it out.
Almost all these smart devices are useless. Just give me a fucking toaster or microwave that doesn't die in six months, there is no world on which being able to connect my microwave or dishwasher to the internet is relevant or helpful to anyone but the data miners.
