The conversation about connecting more things to the internet is a valid one.

But when we're talking about lights, curtains, and TV, this seems more like a nuisance issue than a real security threat, no? I suppose opening the curtains when somebody is changing would also constitute a privacy violation, but that's about as far as I can see that going. Wouldn't most folks capable of doing something like this have bigger fish to fry if they've got their heart set on wreaking havoc?
