I know, it is a very sad state of affairs.

In doing IOT for 2 decades, this is probably one of the biggest issues. At best, most devices have a "download firmware" option that 99% of users can't operate.

I could go on about dozens of other issues, like back-door field-service passwords, http not https, passwords in the clear, endless XSS vulnerabilities, but this is one of the biggest.
