Good riddance. I could always tell how inefficient those bulbs were, simply from trying to touch them to change the bulb. All that heat is wasted energy.
Plus there's a lot of neat things we can do with the new LED bulbs, including adding Wi-Fi circuits to make them smart bulbs. And the price of those LED bulbs is dropped so much, I don't even really worry about the price difference anymore.
That's how you can get your very own botnet, courtesy of some guy in China. Most of these shitty IoT crap never get any updates, and will probably serve most of their life as easy access points into your LAN.
I quarantine my IoT stuff in their own VLAN. They should be treated as untrusted devices, because they are, same as any BYOD network. Hack away!
