But if you just spent a ton of money on your new WiFi enabled refrigerator, why wouldn't you give it your password so you can constantly monitor your produce drawer temperature.?
I'm sorry, Dave, but I've been talking to your scale this morning. You are only getting fresh vegetables and water until you've lost 20 pounds.
Lol, yeah.
The article’s hyperbole so it’s fine to joke about it. The gist of it is they were reviewing spamm mail and noticed a significant percentage came from wifi-enabled appliances. Such as LGfridge1534214@usersISP.com. The hackers just used available network IDs on an unsecured network to send spamm mail from.
If the business network is hacked and the hackers are only using it to send spamm mail I’d say the business has a pretty low threat surface.
