No thanks. I have a pc and a smartphone, that’s plenty of smarts for my home appliances.

I might reconsider in the future once there are open source, privacy friendly options available that give full control to the user. I want "dumb" smart devices that don’t call home for every task and have enough processing power on their own without a corpo server farm.
