Not OK Google: Massive outage turns smart home kit utterly dumb • Desperate punters forced to twiddle their knobs manually for hours worldwide

Title is gold. Can't wait to read.

I hope they all implode taking their owners with them... who buys this nonsense? I can't fathom a purpose for owning one myself...

Google has helped me twiddle my knob for hours, usually in several minute intervals spread out throughout the week.

It's the Russians! Or Chinese! Or North Korea! (Or are they good guys now?)
