cinci zoo sniper posted:for water boilers coil is perfectly efficient, since water surrounds it - your efficiency is 100% minus minuscule bit of technicalities. doing that via induction would be much more expensive to maintain, for no gains in efficiency the pro move for water heaters is - once again - heat pumps unless you actually need to heat it up to near boiling, in which case i'm not sure. maybe a combo heat pump/regular resistive heater?

There's no way this many people were affected unless they're still operating a service that provides remote access or it's using upnp to open a port by default or something. If it has known vulnerabilities wd probably should have at least done something to make it not be remotely accessible by default.
