Broke: smart thermostats will help us reduce demand for peaker plants and power spikes, protecting the grid and saving you money and are good Woke: smart thermostats will help corporations spy on your habits and are bad Bespoke: smart thermostats will help one corporation spy on your habits, another corporation avoid modernizing its infrastructure, and a third corporation will pocket the savings and are
