But not inevitable. I don't have to buy the toaster or fridge with the network connection. I don't have to open my firewall to any device within my home. I will find a way to disable any wireless connection (except, perhaps my cellphone) that tries to bypass my firewall.
In a democracy, we have (in theory) the ability to pass laws to force manufacturers to allow us control over the devices we buy. Don't we?
