we can ofc have a laugh about wireless knives that require firmware update, but jokes aside, connecting devices to the internet when they shouldn't may result in injuries, or even deaths.
fortunately, recent experiment with robot lawn mower have been exactly this - an experiment. but who knows how many other devices made by irresponsible companies like this are out there https://www.theverge.com/tech/925696/yarbo-robot-lawn-mower-hack-remote-control-camera-access-mqtt

@parleur Du WiFi sur un frigo et sur un lave-ligne… et avec un mot de passe par défaut commun à tout le monde…
Comme les FAI il y a 15 ans amis au moins les FAIL ont appris (même sil les mots de passe sont quand même de la merde et qu'il faut les changer, c'est pas/plus les mêmes pour toutes les machin-boxes…)

Roku and TCL are being sued for allegedly bricking smart TVs with bad updates

And that, kids, is yet another reason why your TV or that damn fridge shouldn't need an internet connection to work.
Pasirodė naujas inovatyvus produktas - žolės rūkymui skirtas veipas su AI ir blockchainu. https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/04/21/gudtrip-the-ai-agent-vape-pen-with-blockchain/
Šita kompanija dar 2025 spalį buvo išleidusi panašų produktą (veipas su blockchain), jų reklaminis šūkis buvo "rūkyk kasiaką, uždirbk bitkoiną".
Tada produktas nepaėjo, matyt dėl to, kad nebuvo įdiegtas AI - ir dabar ši klaida ištaisyta. Rūkai kanapes, ir tuo pačiu mine'ini kriptovaliutą, ir ten kažkaip dar kažkur AI.
