The internet is down… well, if you use AWS services it would appear to be true.

Things such as Alexa (now working again?), Ring, etc are either slow or not responding whilst they try to get things running again

    @Sxan @Cyber I don’t like smart locks because I don’t trust them. I’m afraid someone is able to hack them. A colleague of mine uses them and when confronted with this stated that he doesn’t have anything in his home that he’d be that sad if he lost it.

    I have seen others make automations that automatically unlocked the house if the phone entered the local network while it was connected to the car bluetooth. While that’s convenient I don’t want to automate security. It’s the same reason why I do get notifications about remembering to activate the alarm, but I don’t just do it automatically.
