That, plus blocking all updates from the 'smart' devices; in the last few years, I dont remember anything getting better from updates, everything is actually getting way worse. I have a Sonos soundbar. It used to be nice. Now it automatically goes to sleep after a few minutes of tv inactivity. I now hate the device and the company. My old M1 mbp used to feel super fast. A number of MacOs updates later it feels sluggish. I don't see anything better about MacOs of today vs. 3 years ago, literally NOTHING. My apple tv now routinely drops airplay -- it used to work flawlessly. Etc. etc. All those companies push shit updates to keep their existing engineering teams busy. | ||

Don't update anything unless its broken (apart from computer and phone unfortunately). Never connect to wifi. Literally anything, there is simply no real gain, potential for loss absolute. | ||
