Review on ๐Ÿ  Enhanced Assistant Compatibility with BN LINK Monitoring Function: Advanced Monitoring Solution for Smart Homes by Quinton King

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Gathers too much information and poses a security risk

The device works properly and is easy to set up. The app is easy to use, but there are some weird options. Why are you starting a "familyโ€? Just list the devices. Also, the application collects too much information. Why does he need to know your exact location? Surname? phone number? Email the address? It's a glorified light switch! What's next, an extension that needs a blood test? No thank you. The device itself must not be connected to the Internet. No need to reprogram the socket timer from home. The software on the device is not updated, especially when the manufacturer disappears. In this way you will unknowingly become part of the botnet in the future when security gaps are inevitably discovered. Smart devices are a Trojan horse for planned obsolescence. They will magically stop working or "no longer supported" and you will have to buy a new one. A much dumber device would be better and safer.
