Appliance makers like Whirlpool and LG just can't understand. They added Wi-Fi antennae to their latest dishwashers, ovens, and refrigerators and built apps for them—and yet only 50 percent or fewer of their owners have connected them. What gives?

The issue, according to manufacturers quoted in a Wall Street Journal report (subscription usually required), is that customers just don't know all the things a manufacturer can do if users connect the device that spins their clothes or keeps their food cold—things like "providing manufacturers with data and insights about how customers are using their products" and allowing companies to "send over-the-air updates" and "sell relevant replacement parts or subscription services."

“The challenge is that a consumer doesn’t see the true value that manufacturers see in terms of how that data can help them in the long run. So they don’t really care for spending time to just connect it,” Henry Kim, US director of LG's smart device division ThinQ, told the Journal.

The White House issued a statement today that said, essentially, it hosted a big meeting on Wednesday, with big names, and that some kind of security label for smart devices will come of it in spring 2023. Here’s a good deal more on what happened, and what’s likely to come out of it.

One of the top-level recommendations of the US Cyberspace Solarium Commission, named for the Eisenhower administration’s drive to rethink Cold War strategy , in its March 2020 report was to, “Establish a national cybersecurity certification and labeling authority.” A “non-profit, non-governmental organization” will become a labeling authority for at least five years, tagging products based on the consensus of the departments of Commerce and Homeland Security, and “experts from the federal government, academia, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector.”

And that’s about who showed up, according to the White House. Amazon, Comcast, Google, Intel, LG, Samsung, Sony, and other private entities showed up. So did the Connectivity Standards Alliance, the consortium behind Matter , along with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), Consumer Reports, and the Consumer Technology Association, CTIA, and National Retail Federation lobbying groups. Add in just about every security-touching government agency, and you’ve got the panel the Solarium Commission recommended.

The specification for Matter 1.0 was released on Tuesday—all 899 pages of it . More importantly, smart home manufacturers and software makers can now apply for this cross-compatibility standard, have their products certified for it, and release them. What does that mean for you, the person who actually buys and deals with this stuff?

At the moment, not much. If you have smart home devices set up, some of them might start working with Matter soon, either through firmware upgrades to devices or hubs. If you're deciding whether to buy something now, you might want to wait to see if it's slated to work with Matter. The first devices with a Matter logo on the box could appear in as little as a month. Amazon, Google, Apple, and Samsung's SmartThings division have all said they're ready to update their core products with Matter compatibility when they can.

That's how Matter will arrive, but what does Matter do? You have questions, and we've got... well, not definitive answers, but information and scenarios. This is a gigantic standards working group trying to keep things moving across both the world's largest multinational companies and esoteric manufacturers of tiny circuit boards. It's a whole thing. But we'll try to answer some self-directed questions to provide some clarity.

SmartDry was a smart home product that did something useful: tell you when your clothes in your dryer were actually dry.

A small pack mounted inside nearly any dryer drum could prevent clothes from shrinking, save you energy costs (at least $60 per year, the marketing claimed), and even warn you about clogged vents causing high heat—or, much worse, gas buildup. A second-generation version could even turn off your gas dryer automatically. Reviewers greatly preferred it to their own dryers' unpredictable dryness sensors.

The problem is that SmartDry alerted you to dry clothing by connecting to your home's Wi-Fi; the device sent a message to parent company Connected Life's servers and then relayed that message to your smartphone. But Connected Life Labs is closing, discontinuing SmartDry, and shutting down its servers on September 30. After that, "cloud services will cease operations and the product apps will no longer be supported."

Hardware and software makers are scrambling to determine if their wares suffer from a critical vulnerability recently discovered in third-party code libraries used by hundreds of vendors, including Netgear, Linksys, Axis, and the Gentoo embedded Linux distribution.

The flaw makes it possible for hackers with access to the connection between an affected device and the Internet to poison DNS requests used to translate domains to IP addresses, researchers from security firm Nozomi Networks said Monday . By feeding a vulnerable device fraudulent IP addresses repeatedly, the hackers can force end users to connect to malicious servers that pose as Google or another trusted site.

The vulnerability, which was disclosed to vendors in January and went public on Monday, resides in uClibc and uClibc fork uClibc-ng , both of which provide alternatives to the standard C library for embedded Linux. Nozomi said 200 vendors incorporate at least one of the libraries into wares that, according to the uClibc-ng maintainer , include the following:

From Spamhaus: Here's a bonkers tale about a spamming doorbell . Oof, crappy "internet of things" devices are a scourge unto the internet. Alex Grosjean shares this very interesting story of tracking down where the spam was coming from on a home broadband subscriber's network. And why ISPs ought to be blocking port 25. And why IOT devices need to be more secure.
