If the day ever comes where this is not an option anymore, then I will just clean my house with a broom. Same thing goes for washing machines. If I can't buy one without internet, then I will clean my clothes by hand.
Smart things are the worst shit ever. They make everything take longer, given the debugging/upgrading overhead. Not buying into that. What would be smart, would be a washing machine that cleans, dries, sorts and folds my clothes. Without talking to facebook. I would buy into that, but I don't need to share my washing machine status on instagram

Perfect! I wish a large enough section of the population took this principled stance. Those greedy corpos wouldn't be abusing their customers so much if the latter were united in denying them the market and the opportunity. Those 'smart devices' really need and deserve a lobotomy.
