When your current washer breaks to the point of being unrepairable, you will find the only choice is an Internet connected washer.

I bought the same model Bosch dishwasher that I bought last year ( I have 2 dishwashers). Bosch added Internet to their dishwashers this year. I was enraged but had no choice. They removed some wash features from buttons and made them selectable only from the app. I haven't turned the feature on but there's Wi-Fi in my dishwasher screaming to get out to the Internet. It could likely be hijacked with the right bot attack.

We need a law that all antennas come with a physical switch. Wifi, Cell, whatever comes next. They need a physical cut off switch just like privacy doors have become common on laptop cameras.
