heh regular people using AI to hack their home appliances and finding out those things collect a bunch of private information on them

I don't know why they're saying AI enabled it though. I don't know if I'm out of touch or what. You could always do this, just people didnt bother to try it before. Sure, you maybe needed to read up some documentation first on it, but it's not like AI is what "makes this possible". Or is it really that way for the average person somehow?

Maybe it just makes a good clickbait article now if you use the keyword
