What exactly will I benefit from with this Internet of Things?

Do I want my light bulb on the internet or my car?

My internet decides not to work sometimes, does that mean my car or light won't turn on sometimes?

Can someone hack my light bulb or my car even?

Honestly this is a huge fantasy land of nonsense and a way to get more money out of us, period for crap we do not need.

Don't get me wrong, some of it in terms of medical and practical life saving services are appreciated but over all...ugh. We cannot even get a a computer to easily have voice recognition and type for us.
