Solution from U-tec....app update! Now we need you to sign up for the app, give us your email address and name, we'll figure out your location 😃!

Fucking retards want me to tell them when I'm home and when I lock the door! WTF! I just wanted a lock that I could monitor from the web and the ulock was it. But now the company wants me to sign into the app (tell them I need to unlock or lock my lock) whenever I need to use the lock. They ofcourse get access to my camera because lock, and my files because lock, and location because lock.

Now I need to login to my blendtech account so I can make a smoothie. But first I need to login to my LGE account so I can get frozen berries and milk from the fridge. I also need to login to IKEA so I can get some apples my table and to costco.com so I can step around the kitchen on their flooring... excuse me, my flooring. But first, home Depot, if you're really listening, toto toilets really are the best.
