Further to this, you claim that you have been compromised on HUNDREDS of sites even though you use a unique password everywhere?
How is this happening to you? Isn't this a huge concern?
It’s not too far-fetched.
I’ve been compromised on dozens of sites out of ~1.500 sites on which I have accounts, all of them with unique email addresses and unique passwords. Those dozens accounts are just those I happen to know about (through HIBP, incoming email spam, or the occasional site owner’s disclosure) so they’re probably just the tip of the iceberg.
Sites are being breached left and right. If you’re lucky, the site owner tells you. Many won’t.
Lots of people will get their regular coffee maker ready the night before with water and ground beans. At a specific time in the AM it will brew. Lots of old models have timers you can set. I avoid smart devices like the plague. My Bosch fridge is a smart fridge and I plan on putting it on a VLAN.
As another new owner of a Bosch fridge, why put it on anything at all? I just peeled the sticker that told me how to connect off, threw it in the trash, and treat it just like my old non-connected fridge. Is there actually some beneficial feature that makes it worth connecting at all?
Problem: Right french door is hard to close and user often leaves it open. User does not hear alarm.
Solution 1: Make french door easier to close / close automatically.
Solution 2: Make alarm louder. Adjustable even.
Solution 3: Add networked computer, software, mobile phone application, and wire them all up.
French door fridges have this flat piece that slides behind one of the doors to make it airtight. Our previous place had a Samsung that did the same thing, except it was the left door and easier to shut.
It’s made by Germans, they don’t always make things usable or even serviceable (German cars).
But even then, I’m pretty sure you can buy simple electric ones with timers…
/s, since it is not the specialized coffee machine on the office floor which is the biggest problem but the thousands of ones at home where people do not even bother to firewall it.
