I think that experience with abandonware will for long scare away regular people from all that IOT stuff.
My own position has for long been that all that IoTness needs to be "invisible," or otherwise it turns the thing into an annoying toy:
I've seen people throwing away their smart assistants already. A lot of people get quite surprised that the famed speaker is far more than just a speaker and tries to insert itself into your breakfast conversation. And those annoying, repeated "Internet connection failure," I think a few people threw them out just because of that.
