The Fridge used $9, cooking used another small amount, heating used the most, with lights next. and another small amount for misc.
With some simple logic, they can work that stuff out easily because I have automatic lighting, the fridge is basically the constant background trickle usage.
They probably know that we work during the day and it wouldn't be hard for someone who works there to pick and choose which house they're going to rob.
Hopefully they can work out that I also have a security system with 8 cameras running 24/7
I hate that they know so much shit about me... It's the principle of it.
My fear is less that the government will use my toaster to take over my life. It's more that government ignorance and inability to understand security protocols will allow North Korea to hack the power grid or the water supply or something. THAT is a very real and serious threat.
What happens when the next Hillary posts nuclear launch codes on Facebook or something? I can imagine this:
Kim: Trump, you don't have the launch codes bro, cuz your dick is too small.
Trump: I do, too! Look, here they are. Read it and weep Rocket Man!
