I've been slowly integrating smart devices into living spaces for the last 5 or so years, looking forward to having a good mix of both tactile and soft control of electronics in my house, like lighting, shutters, blinds, TV's to work in tandem to create an amazing and unique atmosphere in my home.

Don't want it. The last thing I want is more complicated tech crap collecting information about me so they can sell me more tech crap.

I wouldn't trust anything from treasonous companies. "Smart home" is just another thing for hackers to go after.
