I do think they are onto something. I just want a dishwasher that washes dishes, a dryer that just dries, a refrigerator that refrigerates. I don't need another camera and tablet or more "smart" crap in my home, it's just one more thing to break or need updating. I just need things that work reliablely when I need them to work.
Also, less plastic in the manufacturing material would be great. Just me thinking out loud but it also seems like it would be easier to control the life span by using plastic because you can play with the chemistry to start breaking down at a certain amount of usage and temperature and age.
I want a dishwasher that washes dishes, that I have the schematics to so that I can hook up my own arduino and have it broadcast on MY network when its done. Same for everything else. The internet of things wasn't a bad idea PER SE, its just that people were dis-invited to owning their technology. We don't have a culture of repair.
Also just use bimetal temperature instead of making everything be digital, in lot's of cases you don't need that much and it is much cheaper to replace single simple cheap component than whole electronic board that costs half the price of new machine. Got dad that works on gastro repairs and this is quite common.
