That dude 100% deserved it. Not for anything he said but for being a tech career guy and wiring his house up so hard he couldn't open it without Alexa. He wouldn't have been able to open it without wifi either.

If you’re going all in on smart home shit, you should ALWAYS buy the products that work when the internet goes out, or when the local IoT network shits out.

Example, fuck Hue lights. Gets Caseta switches that are wired in and can be used like real switches. Don’t get a smart lock that requires a phone or a wireless pays. Get one that also has a keypad that is hardwired directly into the lock and has a normal key hole. Carry the key just incase.

Yeah I try to get Zigbee or Zwave devices as much as possible. None of my smarthome stuff relies on Alexa or Google to work.
