I have a proposal:
Whenever some company insists on calling a piece of equipment or software "smart", let's call it "needy" instead.

- needs wifi
- needs bluetooth
- needs update
- needs cookies
- needs access
- needs account
- needs login

I want dumb stuff that works.

@Fischblog i want smart stuff that works on *my* terms. But I can't possibly build all of it myself :-(

@claudius @Kadsenchaos @Fischblog What we need are good open standards and laws that force companies to implement those standards correctly, but that would be [gasp] Socialism, wouldn't it?
