I've just found out about this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/LinusTechT...et_smart_home_devices_are_becoming_ewaste_at/
after I tried to look at something on the Gigaset Elements app. and found it had stopped working 2 weeks ago.
I've only got one device but it brings home to you the vulnerability of all this cloud-only cr@p when companies go bust.
It's very difficult to get anything that works locally without any need for a compulsory cloud tie-in though.
