The internet is down... well, if you use AWS services it would appear to be true.

Things such as Alexa (now working again?), Ring, etc are either slow or not responding whilst they try to get things running again

Yep, that's my use-case. I am not interested in unlocking the door, only locking it.

    I used to think this but I really like that my car unlocks as I approach it! I understand the risk there but damn is that convenient.

    But my other use case is my kids. They’re legally adult yet still can’t seem to remember to bring their keys. Those idiots keep putting a hide-a-key in an extremely obvious spot. But they always bring their phone
