The DHS has also built an “Internet of Things” house to train officers on how to raid homes that suspects may have “booby trapped” using smart home devices, the official said.</p><p>The robot, called “NEO,” is a modified version of the “Quadruped Unmanned Ground Vehicle (Q-UGV) sold to law enforcement by a company called Ghost Robotics. Benjamine Huffman, the director of DHS’s Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC), told police at the 2024 Border Security Expo in Texas that DHS is increasingly worried about criminals setting “booby traps” with internet of things and smart home devices, and that NEO allows DHS to remotely disable the home networks of a home or building law enforcement is raiding. The Border Security Expo is open only to law enforcement and defense contractors. A transcript of Huffman’s speech was obtained by the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s Dave Maass using a Freedom of Information Act request and was shared with 404 Media.</p><p>“NEO can enter a potentially dangerous environment to provide video and audio feedback to the officers before entry and allow them to communicate with those in that environment,” Huffman said, according to the transcript. “NEO carries an onboard computer and antenna array that will allow officers the ability to create a ‘denial-of-service’ (DoS) event to disable ‘Internet of Things’ devices that could potentially cause harm while entry is made.”"</p><p><a href="https://www.404media.co/dhs-has-a-ddos-robot-to-disable-internet-of-things-booby-traps-inside-homes/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">404media.co/dhs-has-a-ddos-rob</span><span class="invisible">ot-to-disable-internet-of-things-booby-traps-inside-homes/</span></a></p>

Agnieszka R. Turczyńska<p>Let it be a warning story for you, regarding smart home solutions.</p><p>Two years ago we have bough a house. Together with the house came a thermostat for controlling the gas boiler. The one from the smart kind.</p><p>Since the very beginning it was clear to me, this particular solution is a crap. The only way to control it was by login to the external web page and set the schedule and temperatures there, and the device at home periodically has checked if there is a change to fetch. Also, this particular device has only volatile memory. So, when power is turned off, the device needs to fetch the settings from the server.</p><p>I've tried to replace it with another smart solution, but failed at it (and I have wrote a little bit about that as well).</p><p>So, I am still using the one which came with the house.</p><p>And the servers went down somewhen during last two weeks. So far the device is still working, with recent settings. So, I am not in dire needs. However, the first power failure means I am being left without heating.</p><p>And what is the lesson for you? If you want to buy any kind of smart home solution, please make sure it will work decently without internet connection.</p><p>The very basic check you can do is to open <a href="https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">home-assistant.io/integrations</span><span class="invisible">/</span></a>, find if there is available support for the device you want to buy, and check its IoT class. If this is local push or local polling, it would rather be OK. If this is a cloud push/cloud pulling, then further research is needed, as without the internet (or servers) available, the device's functionality will be degraded. Sometimes slightly, sometimes severely. And it is up to you to decide, if it is OK to be stuck with device having degraded functionality.</p><p>PS. To make this clear - I have a backup plan, so no advice is needed. Unless you have a recommendation of a smart thermostat with temperature zone control, which works fully locally. Then I'd be glad to hear.</p><p><a href="https://circumstances.run/tags/smart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>smart</span></a> <a href="https://circumstances.run/tags/smarthome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>smarthome</span></a> <a href="https://circumstances.run/tags/smarthomes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>smarthomes</span></a> <a href="https://circumstances.run/tags/heating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>heating</span></a> <a href="https://circumstances.run/tags/thermostat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thermostat</span></a> <a href="https://circumstances.run/tags/thermostats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thermostats</span></a></p>
