Aside from the understandable click-bait title and the fact that he started of by saying something like "This is the first and most important thing you should turn off," I did not hear him say that. I heard him say he liked the "idea" of what it could do but the evil hackers lurking in front of his house with a secret back door he's sure they have make it a must-turn-off boogeyman.

I turned it off. I did so not because I think Amazon is devious. I turned it off because I don’t need it and I think the Amazon programmers are morons. They repeatedly screw up device firmware, so why should I trust them to make Sidewalk secure?
You seem to be, like me, rightfully suspicious of everything, just maybe slightly more so toward some things, like Amazon.

Actually I can see myself turning into you...when I get old.
