sordid, 1 month ago to landlords

Smart locks securing entry to an estimated 50,000 dwellings nationwide contain hard-coded credentials that can open them remotely.

The lock's maker Chirp Systems remains unresponsive, even though it was first notified about the critical weakness in March 2021. Meanwhile, Chirp's parent company, RealPage, Inc., is being sued by multiple U.S. states for allegedly colluding with landlords to illegally raise rents.

P.S. never give cybersecurity spooks clicks even after they go "freelance" or whatever

People are generally too trusting and uncritical of technology.

I’d rather take an old school lock and key to some electronic pad that’ll effectively lock me out of my home until it gets updated. Haha
