Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

  Simple fix.
  IoT devices should never be on your main WiFi network. They should only be on a guest WiFi or on a WiFi network that is separate from your main WiFi using its own NAT router. Likewise, none of your guests should be using your main Wifi network.
  
  Since you're correctly concerned about security, I'll assume you've got a newer, more secure Wifi/Access-Point/Router, which should be able to provide a guest network.

Another cloud camera. HELL NO.

If we are going to have cameras in our house, they will be contained to our LAN and we'll use VPN, or at the very least private secure HTTP server, to access the video. Anything else is a non-starter.
