I wanted to make something like this, I think it's a great idea.

People might be in for a rude awakening if someone figures out how to hack it remotely though, lol

I am working on providing feeds with "Picture of the day" for the device. I agree that that service should run hardened software to prevent your scenario from happening.

If you run the device in local mode though, WiFi is never enabled.

Hey! I’ve wanted to make (or buy) one of these for years! (A battery-powered eink picture frame with no power cord.) I hope you get your site back up soon! And eventually branch into color eink and larger (wall-hangable) sizes!
