Philips Hue does something similar with their lights, where at least three lights can be used to automate lights within a certain zone.

Police already have well developed relationships with ISPs. Now they can request access to the human sensing device already inside your house before they kick in your door.

A good reminder that the corporate-controlled device in your home can be used to spy. Only on your behalf, of course.
