Not a big deal, and in light of some of the ungrounded claims that 5G causes cancer, and the propensity of people to jump to death threats, I’m more accepting than normal of the report not having names on it. Unfortunately, the cellular network folks hate that because they are stuck on the idea of smart networks and dumb end devices.

Take a moment and do a quick search of stories on whatever topic is at hand. When I say “things,” we’re not just talking about the traffic lights.

Still on the topic of Amazon, I received an interesting email from the tech giant announcing a new offering entitled Amazon Sidewalk (you just know a marketing intern who’s never stepped outside of the US came up with a name like that). The same company that sells woefully insecure alternative smart doorbells. Sharing is (s)caring.

It seems everything smart is hackable, with IoT startups sometimes repeating security mistakes first made decades ago. One night I found the light in the crawl space beneath the cottage was on and off and on again. Raccoons are blind in the light, so they were effectively creating a denial of service attack upon themselves.
