It means they monitor your power usage and can turn it off at will.

Tell them NO.

Digital remote access...

Are you a cracker?  Are you a male?  Are you a Christian?  Are you MAGA?

Prepare to be treated like a child-molester in prison...or Derek Chauvin...same thing to them...

In my battle back in town over water meter (thank God it was inside, not outside my home) city wanted to put in a smart meter, I refused all requests...and the law (then) said it is not in the law to agree to it...so I ignored them...

Might want to look into that...

They may "threaten" to charge more to send a flunky out to read your meter...be ready to push back on that BS too...

Soon AI and drones will be running roughshod...
