Anybody in his right minds wouldn't connect a washing machine to WiFi in the first place.
I'd connect it to wifi maybe. I wouldn't connect it to the Internet.
When it comes to home automation I'm generally onboard, but it's local control or nothing.
Will wifi switches locked down to home network only still function?
You can have a WiFi access point that isn’t connected to the internet. A lot of consumer devices will complain but that’s not WiFi’s problem.
