If you don't some of your neighbors might. I installed an app to control my AC remotely and when i pressed the button to add all units in range it automatically added one more than there were in my apartment. I had complete control over the AC unit of some unsuspecting neighbour - I could see its status and control everything from my phone anywhere in the world. I suspect it's not that bad for fridges, but you still might be able to do some harm there as well.

Could be worse - I live in an apartament complex and everyone’s home control is on it’s own network but with the same password. We cannot change it - even as apartament owners.

So, if a neighbors party gets too loud you can go an aggressive way and just turn off their lights and lower curtains… or go passive aggressive way and bring their AC waay down so they begin to suffer but may not realise why :D

The whole system runs on some sort of an outdated linux servers, so one day I plan to hack my own home’s access network to get a root finally.
