Every electronic device in your home - from appliances and smart meters to doorbells - forms a personal "Internet of Things." The primary vendors hoover up data, exchange or sell it to others; that is the expected outcome. But a mishmash of security hubris leftover lets black hat hackers assemble an IoT profile on you to see when you are home, what valuables you might have, etc. Figuratively speaking, it leaves you naked as a jaybird for all to peer into your home.
