You keep repeating this in your comments like
a broken record. What do _you_ care that people care? People obviously do care or they wouldn’t be voicing on HN? Why does that bother you so much?
Because I believe many of the responses are irrational, and not expressing what the actual underlying feelings are of the commenters.
People are upset that there is a reduction in the openness of things, which I understand. People are upset that their personal projects and home hacks will stop working, which I understand.
They should just state that though, and not the "That's it I'm never buying Nest again" type of angry response.
If you want to hack your home, there are many open source alternatives.

Nest used to be one of those alternatives, and everyone who bought into it is screwed. I did not buy into it because I figured it would happen. It does not make it any less horrible that it did happen.
