It is sad that this person got scammed, and there are a lot of legitimate comments in this article. But I have to admit that at first I thought the "scam" was going to be that these $200 smart smoke alarms aren't a real product. Certainly for me, the risks of adding such complexity to such an important product are not worth it, especially at 10x the cost.
