The source code of the botnet that compromised IoT devices that knocked Brian Krebs off the internet is now available online, so expect to see more of this in the future. Myself, I don't have much of a need for IoT devices. If others want them, fine. The only thing at my house plugged in to my router is my satellite DVR. My TV isn't that smart, and that's fine by me. I suppose I'll have to plug in my Bluray player occasionally to update encryption keys, but that's about it.

And there was an article on Ars Technica[/url] saying that DVRs are compromised at a fierce rate. So basically if it has a CPU, an OS, and a network connection: it can probably be compromised.
