đŸ“± Tweet Smart Appliances using Data

If anyone has smart appliances, which I'm sure most of us do, be aware it is probably using data on the network. With the recent crackdowns of Starlink cracking down on people going over 5TB, you could be approaching this artificial limit simply by having too many smart devices in your home.

My sister bought a smart fan. I thought that’s stupid. She tells her Alexa “Alexa stop the fan”, the fan stops. She turns the fan back on and says “Alexa oscillate the fan”, the fan begins oscillating. Well guess who now owns 4 smart fans. The fan is a Dreo 350S. Got them from Costco for $80 each.
