“There is some merit to load balancing but this is a method to force you to make the “right choice” via significantly higher energy costs during times of high demand.”
I have a rather elaborate load balancing meter in my home (it is my load balancing meter, not the utilities), but I control it and set it how I want it. Not the same of course as these environazi’s doing it.

Im not much of an electrician so pardon my ignorance if this is a stupid question. From what i gather the smart meters can pattern usage, control your ac, etc by load signatures of various appliances. is there any way to mask the signatures?
FWIW, my meter is inside a fenced yard. I posted a "bad dog" notice on each of the locked gates. Power co calls to schedule a reading q3 months.
