That's a lot of data, but I imagine if they operated with bandwidth restrictions, companies might limit themselves more in what they collect.

Though I do think that's within range of even the lowest possible LoRa bandwidth estimates since there's no realtime requirement.

A single remote click is a very small piece of data, even less than the 8-10 bytes that a datetime uses. Contextual data will likely be the larger portion, such as a unique system identifier, currently active application, and any metadata that provides. There are ways to limit that, like sending a context object once and giving it an id, then referencing the id instead of re-sending the same data repeatedly.

But even if that doesn't happen, the lack of realtime requirement means the data can simply be queued up to send over time. If a user generates a few kilobytes of data a second for hours by sitting on their remote control's channel switch button, they won't be that active forever. The device can eventually send out all of the data during the inactive periods.

Or it can prioritize which data to send first, or which to discard, when the queue reaches a certain threshold.
