Be careful buying anything cheap because it’s only a matter of time before they decide they need to make a profit.

It really is out of control though. I try to rein it in as much as I can. Switched 20+ Alexa’s to HomePods but even my damn ecobee doorbell wants a sub lol

homekit compatible doorbells like logitech work with no sub. unless you have over two cameras (i think) then you need a higher tier icloud storage account.

The Borg are more ethical. At least they're honest. The terms and conditions are a lot shorter too.
