  4. The answer is "YES" on Ask Slashdot: Is My IoT Device Part of a Botnet? · · Score: 1

    If you have a device connected to the internet, made by some startup or big company, who doesn't care about the security of user data.
    What can go wrong will go wrong. Your device and/or data will get hacked.
    if you are lucky, it will perhaps not happen to you, but don't count on it, so assume it's compromised, and therefore don't accept devices that are unecessarily connected to the open internet.

    So the obvious answer to the question if your connected device is compromised is "YES, it is compromised."

    >> Forget the fact that even a big "evil" corporation that builds "killing machines" has people that work for them and people don't like to see other people die because the product they produced failed to protect their lives.
