Many years ago, our local Gas & Electric utility offered a $50.00 coupon for allowing the installation of a "smart" thermostat. I told 'em to eff off - & will never have Alexis or any other #digitalbitch effing/tinkering with my castle.

Got locked out? Good! Now f*ck-off, wanker!

I ignored the plea of the city for a smart meter for my water...I think they finally gave up...they want to turn off my water they'll have to turn off everybody's...not that they wouldn't do that anyway...but shame on me if I help them any!

My city upgraded the water meters. They are not smarter than the old ones, just newer. Thay can be read remotely. They would have added a fine if I had not allowed it.
