I was hoping to read more about the crappy quality of most "things" in the Internet of Things (The Nest thermostat is an exception to the rule). To cut costs, the sensors involved are usually very simple, "dumb", often built poorly with low quality components and not integrated very well. It's up to the software, which often isn't written that well either, to compensate. Just getting the system to work is difficult enough with the budget, time, and resources available. Never mind securing it. So, welcome to the Internet of Things that don't work half the time and could probably hurt or kill by accident.
