Like, one of the primary points of home assistant is making it so more devices aren’t connected to the internet. It doesn’t anonymize the data, it makes it so you can fully locally control a bunch of products (eg, I have tons of products blocked at my firewall from sending or receiving data from WAN; the only way for a hacker to change my thermostat is to be on my LAN, they literally can’t do it remotely).
Not sure if you’re an LLM or just enjoy entirely missing the point.
I'm not sure you don't have taxoplasmosis, a brain parasite all mammals can harbour, passed between cats and rodents, the rodents lose their fear of cats as it affects their fear center. Up to 30% of the population could have it, it explains a lot.
