Review on πŸ”Œ TP-LINK KL50 Filament with Google Assistant Integration by Patrick Cox

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Requiring connectivity through the Kasa app grants users access to the insecure Kasa network! Was hacked!

BUYER ATTENTION: Yes, this can be toggled on/off, but you will need to download your Kasa app to install your device. The problem is that the Kasa app requires you to leave your secure home network and connect to their insecure internet! At this point, your connection falls freely into the world of cyberspace. Every device I've bought from them has to be wired this way. In my situation, this insecure network connection resulted in a massive internet hack on my home network! Trying to bridge this gap has been a nightmare, and many service providers have tried to untangle this mess. We had to ask for help from our ISP, email server, bank, identity thieves, cellular carrier and more and it still hasn't been fixed. All in all I will NEVER buy their products again. Do this at your own risk.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • So far so good
