Interesting, it’s all upload too. I’ve seen a “smart” device that just blasted out NTP packets to an unresponsive server in an infinite loop. I wonder if something like that is happening there too. That’s too much data for NTP though
Why is you washing machine connected to anything to begin with? If you do not want that, you do not enable it.
My washer and dryer have a whole host of features and settings locked behind connecting it to the internet. I haven’t connected it and won’t but I could see how those settings could be useful for big families, people with sensory needs (my cousin is autistic and has a autoimmune disorder, and his clothes have to have the right amount of softness, scent, and cleanliness.) it took his mom years to find the perfect amount of chemicals, wash time, and dry time to get his clothing right for him to wear without hurting him. I showed her the options on my units and they totally would make her life easier.
I wish those features weren’t packed with ads, had no potential to brick the appliances, and weren’t capturing data but for those that don’t care. Ya totally use them.
And last time this was posted I said my LG oven and Washer both have used less than 20megs in the last month. So the guys shit is broken.
That’s still a fuck ton of data just to give out it’s current status.
It’s streaming the wash cycle. Please don’t block it, I watch that.
Probably bitcoin mining?
