wow... that is scary. I propose IoT devices need to have a disclaimer and privacy policy too. – Nik Ahmad Aug 16 at 5:03

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form.

Might want to move the votes to another questions. I don't think close questions are counted. – user277228 Aug 11 at 22:25

But people like this question. Why would they move their votes? – Lego Stormtroopr Aug 12 at 3:52

Closed questions don't count towards requirements – user277228 Aug 15 at 22:19

But people obviously think this question has merit - I understand that you can move votes, but you haven't made a compelling reason that people should move their votes. – Lego Stormtroopr Aug 15 at 22:29

This question is not a good fit to our Q&A format. We expect answers to generally involve facts, references, or specific expertise; this question will likely solicit opinion, debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion.

This changes yearly and sometimes quarterly. – Dom Jun 26 at 3:28

@user277228 that's not how this process is suppose to work. By moving around votes just to get the proposal to the next stage you are more likely to hurt it as it will be poorly defined for the private beta. This proposal epically at risk for this due to a large amount of low quality example questions. – Dom Aug 13 at 3:22

For those who keep downvoting and closing questions because they believe "they aren't real": This one is a real problem: cord-cutters.wonderhowto.com/how-to/… – Philipp Jan 28 at 9:18

A smart TV is not an IoT device. Just because a device can receive data from the Internet doesn't make it an IoT device. Troubleshooting TV firmware seems off-topic to me. – ColleenV Mar 10 at 18:21

So an internet-connected fridge is on-topic, but an internet-connected TV is not? – Lego Stormtroopr Mar 13 at 23:08

This question seems like its better suited in "web applications" or "hack your tv" if it existed. – Sky Apr 22 at 22:44

Off topic. Removing adverts from an IOT device (a questionable one at that) has nothing to do with IOT. It is akin to asking how to remove the ice from my IOT freezer... – Rich C Jun 13 at 21:45

This question isn't useful. Each protocol and each revision of the protocol uses different hardware and outside the normal components you would find in any device they don't overlap. – Dom Jul 14 at 2:40

Yes @dom that is exactly what I meant. I think it is is good question – Jeff Stein Jul 22 at 20:31

That really doesn't make any sense. The data is realtime from whatever the sensors are so if that can be copyrighted there are much bigger issues... – Dom Jul 22 at 20:37

The relationship of this question to the subject of IoT is merely coincidental. Discussing trends in venture capital would not be on topic for this site. – Robert Cartaino♦ Jun 13 at 17:47
