I have 'wiz' lights in my place - home-networked lighting system. Which works. Well. For me....so glad g hasn't acquired them.
I also thought at first that G acquired the budget smart bulb company but then I realized it’s “WiZ” and not “Wiz”.

Growing up in NYC, it is was impossible to not remember the "Nobody Beats the Wiz" jingle

As a fan of British comedy, this is what I think of when I hear wiz: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/wiz#Etymology_2
