The ever important privacy policy: https://www.whiskerlabs.com/privacy-policy/

My insurance company sent me one of these in the mail, for "free". They say it helps avoid fires caused by electrical faults. But it needs to be both plugged in to an outlet and connected to my wifi, so the data can be sent "home". And so I can use their app, of course.

How Ting prevents 4 out of 5 electrical fires: Ting detects dangerous electrical arcing signals – the precursor to most electrical fires. It leverages advanced AI to analyze 30 million electrical signals per second, enabling detection with unmatched precision and speed.

What do you all think? Might the benefits outweigh the obvious privacy problems with a device like this?

Or, is there any home grown way to achieve the same thing? Thanks!
