I mean it's still all open source, so what if they want to monetise some hardware and cloud connectivity? Worst that will happen is they will drive more and more into paid plans, a fork may or may not happen and there will be a community split, but for my place personally I don't see much of a risk there when most of my stuff just uses the MQTT integration.

Hopefully with money coming in they can improve the core itself, because at the moment the real value of Home Assistant is the huge community around it and 3rd party integrations.
