The Spin
Techno-skeptic narrative
The AWS outage exposes the dangerous reality of tech companies controlling basic life functions like sleep. Smart beds trapping users in 110-degree heat shows how corporate greed prioritizes cloud dependency over safety, forcing customers to pay monthly subscriptions for beds that become useless bricks during outages.
Techno-optimist narrative
Smart appliances revolutionize daily life by providing unprecedented convenience and efficiency through cloud connectivity. These innovative devices offer remote control and continuous updates, freeing up valuable time for families. While internet issues can happen, companies like Amazon swiftly identify and fix the issue, returning things back to normal.
