Inb4 burglars care because it can be used to track when you're at home and when you're away on a holiday
I know the chances are far lower for custom stuff when compared to cheap IP cameras, but having anything open to the internet should leave you extra paranoid.
It's actually not open on the internet, it's only on my LAN. I ssh in to access it if I'm out which is rare so it's very safe. These Tasmota plugs are great because they use Free software firmware (which I updated from the web, not the manufacturer), I trust them a lot more than any other IOT device.
