WiFi, Wireless, Home & Auto Safety

Remember the "Clapper" turn a light on and off...with the invention of the Smartphone, apps to control your lights, home temperature control, or by iPad, iPhone, and much more...having stepped into the 21st Century, with all this WiFi & electronic gidget gadgets 

We may want to re-think going Wireless/WiFi ... as a small drone wirelessly delivers a computer worm causing lights to flicker.  The color and brightness of the Philips Hue smart light bulb can be controlled from a computer or a smartphone. 

Google has Google Home, Hands-free help from the Google Assistant...OK Google, Speak To Me,    controlling lights, music and more.

Amazon Echo...Just ask for information, music, news, weather, and more.  Echo is controlled by your voice for hands-free convenience and is connected to the cloud, so it's always getting smarter.  

Roku turn your Smartphone or Tablet into a streaming companion


The Drone to deliver Products, Pizza, and more...Oops-y !  we have your Pizza now.  You placed an order with Amazon, the package is en-route or it gets diverted.

To think if you have a Hacker living near you, or cruising the neighborhood accessing WiFi networks or Devices, what they might be able to do, open close automatic garage doors, lock unlock your outside doors, turn your oven on, or turn your refrigerator off...

...Advanced driver assistance systems or ADAS, maybe control your Vehicle's adaptive cruise control/collision mitigation, Blind-spot detection/side assist/collision warning, Lane-departure warning, Emergency brake assist/collision mitigation and more turn off your electric motor possibly.

On the Road Again, where it may be heading down the road is uncertain.
