Daniel RubinoMicrosoft should get into the home security business because Eufy, Amazon, Google, and others all have major trust issues.
Excellent article by @Gwanatu, with some input from myself.
theOmegabit@daniel_rubino and Microsoft is the one to lead trust? I mean, relatively, sure, the bar is so low with the others. But I don’t think that makes that sound good.
@theomegabit Yes. MS's rep amongst consumers is 📈:

@daniel_rubino Their rated rep and reality are two very different things. I mean ffs, one (spot reading) of the brands listed in your linked articles is Alipay in China. You can’t claim with a straight face that is legit. You’re conflating mixing security and privacy when they’re both different.
@daniel_rubino But in the sphere of home security / IoT, it’s mostly a vast wasteland of garbage and unregulated crap. That bar couldn’t get lower. And in privacy, Microsoft, along with amazon and google are atrocious. In terms of security, it flips - all three are actually quite good organizationally.
@daniel_rubino To your question though - are we talking trust / privacy or security - not that there is really much difference in the outcome but there is some nuance.
