I will never allow IoT devices into this house unless they can be used offline.
I know everyone points out the problems with Nest, Ring, and various talking/listening/spying agents. For me, one of the worst offenders was a garage door motor that came with WiFi capability. Damn thing has the ability to just open up a door on my house on command. There's no way am I putting that online.
A door to what is arguably the most valuable item you own.
CNC milling machine?
Well...I mean....if that's where you keep your CNC milling machine (I would hope), yeah.
