Re: Time to upgrade your light bulb security
I like their website...nice and interactive.
The bulbs are awesome. It would be a pity if they do not look into this security issue.
Though I do not use these lights, TX anyways for the security update.

I find the Internet of Things both exciting and scary, for example BBC News - Fridge sends spam emails as attack hits smart gadgets.
I don't think I'm quite ready yet to need to remotely control everything
