I was reading this article this week and really haven't worked out what I think about my equipment.

I do not like the google home or Alexa devices and won't have them in my house. Just my personal preference and I know that a lot of people really like them.
But, I have added a WiFi plug to my outdoor lights and I am considering adding others because I like the program ability.
What I can't get clear in my mind is how exposed my WiFi and other tablets are with these. These things know my WiFi information - do they provide an access to hackers?
