> The line in the sand for me is: network vs cloud-based systems. I want things to be network connected, but I want it for my own network only. I want to be able to control my coffee pot, but only from home. If I choose to expose this over the internet, great! It's up to me to make sure it's secure. I don't want anyone making that decision for me.
I also want it to be upgradeable, and hackable. I'm willing to pay a lot of money for standalone quality devices, but nobody is supplying!
