Your smart fridge is about to make our IoT security nightmare so much worse

Each year, CES plays host to some of the most compelling innovations in the tech industry: self-driving cars, virtual reality, robots, drones and televisions that get bigger and thinner each year. Not to mention Wi-Fi and bluetooth sensors embedded into just about every previously mundane appliance and object imaginable. How about a smart hairbrush, a Wi-Fi-connected shower or an app-enabled breast pump? Some of the biggest companies in the world are also fully invested in selling us on the dream of a fully connected home. During its CES press conference, an LG executive breathlessly announced that from now on all of its appliances will be Wi-Fi-enabled and connect to the company's cloud.
