(in all seriousness, it's not directly my field, but I know enough people who are into it that I'd think I'd hear if the term was unfashionable, and I haven't...)
So interesting! I guess I won't worry about what else to call it (yet), then.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

As far as I know IoT is still a phrase. The "connected home" is another popular phrase, but that's really a subset of the space.

Men, what say you?
In my college dorms I frequently peed in the girls bathroom if that was closest. Even when they were brushing their teeth. (Of course they had stalls, but I rarely bothered to close the door since I had my back turned etc.)
In short: Most Guys Will Pee Anywhere.
I would unpack the privilege in this but I think it amounts to: Most Guys Will Pee Anywhere Anytime They Want.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Huh. Cat declawing was just made illegal in NY.
Yeah, 'cuz they have to cut the tendons and all so it's rather a brutal mutilation.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
it's rather a brutal mutilation.
It is, but NY is the first state to outright make it illegal.

I read that Bruce Hay story and it is whackadoo. Sometimes I feel very boring, but then I read stuff like that and I think it's not so bad, honestly.

Okay, that makes me really grateful for my sane set of friends. That's a lot of crazy.

We tried to keep our IoT system secure. The hub validated with two way TLS authentication. Customer data was kept encrypted. We used the secure protocols devices provided. However, the devices themselves still had their problems. The device makers are always fighting cost and short cuts are taken, and the early standard protocol specifications did not take security seriously enough.
