Smart homes might be getting too smart. Start worrying
An Amazon Echo is across the room, and I’m playing a recording of the wake word “Alexa” over and over again at various decibel levels. It’s a relatively simple test — one that I’ve performed in some shape many times over the years — and I’m consistently impressed. Smart speakers like Amazon’s growing roster of Echos and Google’s Home and Nest devices, it turns out, are really good at listening to you. Like really good.
In testing the newest Echo Dot, for instance, I could stand 30 feet away and speak at a low level, and Alexa would still respond. But could a better design make a smart speaker worse for the customer?
There’s not a simple answer to that question, but it’s a question we need to be asking nonetheless — and not just about smart speakers.
Read more: Amazon Echo, Google Nest and all the best smart home gifts of 2019
In the privacy of your own (smart) home
Advancing technology gives rise to all sorts of ethical concerns, but smart home tech is uniquely positioned. It lives in our most intimate spaces, where we eat, where we talk with family, where we dress, where we sleep. Sure, your Nest Mini’s mic and your Echo Show’s camera can be disabled, but the tools of surveillance are still there.
We’re already wading into muddy waters, ethically speaking, what with Amazon and Google recording queries (including conversations when Alexa mistakenly “heard” a wake word). It’s not just smart speakers, either. Smart cams have begun incorporating facial recognition technology, and Ring video doorbells in particular are being used by police forces to create surveillance networks in neighborhoods.
The cameras and microphones we willingly bring into our homes are creating the conditions for a privacy-denuded society. But for many, the services rendered are worth the risk incurred. If you don’t plan on robbing houses in your neighborhood, after all, why object to police monitoring your (or your neighbor’s) Ring camera feed?
Asking the right the question
A few years ago, I interviewed cybersecurity experts at a number of top universities, including Harvard and Johns Hopkins. As I talked with them, trying to get a basic handle on the security concerns in a burgeoning smart home market, they seemed increasingly agitated. Finally, one researcher interrupted me, saying my questions were the wrong ones to ask.
The risk with smart home devices, he said, wasn’t that burglars might hack your smart lock to break into your house. The risk was that hackers could exploit tens of thousands of poorly secured smart home devices across the country for all sorts of purposes — purposes that potentially wouldn’t affect their owners on an individualized level. In other words, that camera, printer or smart fridge probably won’t directly jeopardize your personal safety, but it might well degrade the security of banks, web services or other large institutions the world over.
Only a few months after conducting those interviews, the Mirai botnet attack of 2016 happened, using over 300,000 devices to crash Twitter, Netflix, Reddit, Pinterest and several other sites in a DDoS (or distributed denial of service) attack. The tools of the attack: thousands of printers, off-brand smart cams and other smart home gadgets.
The device insecurity that enables DDoS attacks is different from large-scale privacy degradation, but the consumer mindset fueling it is the same: We as a society are more concerned with the lifestyle benefits of a $50 off-brand smart cam than the threat such a device poses to economic and political stability. We are happy to provide governments and corporations unfettered access to our private lives via microphones and cameras, not to mention Google Maps tracking our locations or Starbucks analyzing our purchasing behaviors, because we feel only the convenience of those products and services. Meanwhile, the privacy that undergirds democratic freedom — of political dissent, reputation management and exploration of ideas (popular or not), to name only a few — slowly deteriorates.
Before I’m dismissed as radical or unrealistic, I should admit that I own an Echo Dot and I use Google Maps almost daily. But I have taken the practical steps of using Duckduckgo instead of Google, deleting many of my “rewards” apps and keeping my Echo on mute anytime I’m not using it. Seeing as policy-makers range from somewhat competent to shamefully inept when it comes to understanding platforms like Facebook and Instagram, maintaining privacy norms in American society might come down to our individual willingness to inconvenience ourselves.
Changing how we value products
As I stand across from a smart speaker, playing a low-volume recording of its wake word, I have to ask myself as a reviewer whether a better microphone makes a better smart home device. Do we really want Google Assistant to be able to hear us whispering two rooms away? Do we want Alexa to know when we’re in better or worse moods? Do we want the Facebook Portal to be able to follow our faces around a room?
Sure, smart speakers have yet to be used, to our knowledge, to surveil criminal suspects or anyone else. But as companies gather more data than they claim and police and government officials conduct meetings about surveilling citizens in private settings, the phrase “the privacy of our own homes” seems to mean less and less. Try as they might, developers can’t disentangle their creations from the ways those devices are used. Smart home tech is as ethically neutral as a loaded gun. Sure, a gun won’t shoot anyone on its own. But so many hands are fumbling to disengage this gun’s safety, it won’t be too long until one finds itself pulling the trigger.

Facebook's Worst Outage Ever Reminds Businesses of the Risks and Rewards of Social Media Marketing
Wednesday, March 13, started like any other Wednesday.
We had our team meeting until 10:00 am CST and then I finished uploading my video podcast, The IMPACT Show, to Facebook.
My list of tasks to knock out today included updating our company Facebook page, setting up a contest in our community which members could enter using Facebook, setting up the Facebook page for our annual event, checking our Facebook ads and any engagement on them, and posting some new content to Facebook and Instagram.
You’re probably sensing a trend here -- all of these things included Facebook.
That’s why, when I realized Facebook was down, again, my day came to a screeching halt.
At first, I didn’t panic. I refreshed a few times, checked my connection, the usual stuff. Eventually, I consulted our team Slack channel and, sure enough, I wasn’t the only one experiencing this outage.
IMPACT's breaking news Slack channel
I checked downdetector.com and saw the red spots popping up around the world and the reports pouring in by the second.
Outage reports via downdetector.com
Yup, it was happening again.
Facebook was down along with Instagram and WhatsApp, which are both owned by Facebook.
Sure enough, I couldn’t see or share anything on Instagram. I couldn’t post or engage with posts on Facebook as myself or as IMPACT. I couldn’t access our page notifications via the browser, Facebook app, or Pages Manager app.
Since Facebook has had multiple outages in the past few months, I wasn’t exactly surprised and figured it wouldn’t last long. (Spoiler: I was wrong.)
The Timeline and Impact of Facebook’s Massive Global Outage
At 12:49 pm CST Facebook tweeted that they were aware of the situation and were working to resolve the situation.
We’re aware that some people are currently having trouble accessing the Facebook family of apps. We’re working to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
— Facebook (@facebook) March 13, 2019
Considering their lack of updates during their last few outages, I was at least pleased to see something from them even if it was on Twitter and not an official status page (that came later).
At 2:03 pm CST they followed up with more information...sort of. They confirmed it was not caused by a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack which is “a malicious attempt to disrupt normal traffic of a targeted server, service or network by overwhelming the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a flood of Internet traffic.”
We're focused on working to resolve the issue as soon as possible, but can confirm that the issue is not related to a DDoS attack.
— Facebook (@facebook) March 13, 2019
However, the vague responses and lack of other updates have left many users skeptical.
“Facebook [has] flat out denied that their outage could be caused by a distributed denial of service attack but I’m yet to be convinced – especially given their very vague explanations,” said Edward Whittingham -- a former police officer and qualified solicitor, who is now the MD of The Defence Works, in an article by Forbes.
Whatever the cause, hours went by and we still had no answers -- and no service.
At this point, my patience was growing thin and many social media marketers with clients were flat out panicking. As any good social media marketer would, I went to Twitter to voice my discontent and see what others had to say about the situation.
me attempting to do my very facebook-centric job when facebook is down... #facebookdown pic.twitter.com/YsHn5FXu3R
— Stephanie Baiocchi (@stephbaiocchi) March 13, 2019
Clearly, I was not the only one who felt the pain.
While users of the Facebook family of apps were growing more frustrated as time went on, businesses who rely on Facebook for advertising and to do business had even more cause for concern. Even I couldn’t do most of the work I intended to do, nor could I communicate with our community in IMPACT Elite.
my clients are like... uhh what do you mean they are just taking my money and burning it?
— Andrew Ernst (@AndrewErnst9) March 13, 2019
Just before midnight central time on Wednesday, Instagram posted that the platform was back up and running.
Anddddd... we're back. pic.twitter.com/5E8UdlcsPJ
— Instagram (@instagram) March 14, 2019
As I write this, it is now more than 24 hours since the outage and the Facebook family of apps are still having issues. Plus, I still haven’t made a dent in my to-do list.
Via developers.facebook.com
During previous Facebook outages, it was still fun and funny to watch GIF-filled, panicked reactions flow into the #Facebookdown feed on Twitter. But not anymore.
The Most Severe Outage in Facebook History
It turns out, this is the most severe outage in Facebook’s history.
“The last time Facebook had a disruption of this magnitude was in 2008, when the site had 150m users - compared to around 2.3bn monthly users today.” -- Dave Lee, North America technology reporter for BBC.com
This outage also affected Facebook’s internal business communication service, Facebook Workplace. This meant that large companies who use Facebook to communicate during the workday were unable to use the platform and had to turn to a different channel.
With an outage of this magnitude, people start to wonder if their personal data is safe. In fact, a criminal investigation is underway, looking into data deals between Facebook and some of the world’s largest tech companies. Ever since the Cambridge Analytica scandal, many are considering deleting their Facebook accounts completely.
What We Can Learn from Facebook’s Outage
Significant outages like this one are problematic for marketers who rely on Facebook’s platforms to do business. Whether you’re advertising on Facebook and Instagram, hosting a live stream on your company page, or engaging with your online community, massive service interruptions cause a lot of issues.
I spoke with Ali Parmelee, IMPACT’s facebook strategist, who said jokingly, “Thanks for the forced break to meditate, Facebook.”
But things weren’t funny for long. Ali went on to say “Full disclosure—it was not the ideal time for this to happen for many of our clients with big events, news, and promos going on. One client was on HBO Vice News, CBS Evening News, CNN, and more yesterday and I was getting frantic texts from them while they were on set waiting to film. They wanted to be posting to their social accounts but there was just nothing we could do.”
I asked her how she deals with these outages when so many clients are depending on Facebook. She said, “Unfortunately, this is going to happen in a digital world. Sometimes you just have to roll with it -- the show must go on! For us, we took it as a perfect opportunity to take the 'quiet time' to keep planning out Q2 to clients and build out strategies for new clients.”
So what’s a social media marketer to do? During the last major outage, Ali reminded us to make sure you have clear lines of communication to keep clients or key stakeholders in the loop when an issue occurs.
She also shared the importance of having a multi-channel approach so that if an issue does arise, you have other channels in place.
What to Do When You Can't Post Your Content
We host live broadcasts, like our Website Throwdowns, on Facebook quite often. Luckily, we didn’t have one today but many other social media marketers did.
Same! We always go Facebook Live on Wednesday nights and now I’m worried we won’t be able to! 😬😬😬
— Lindsay (@lindsayhall5285) March 13, 2019
Now that I can actually see our company feed again, I see the social posts we had scheduled in HubSpot, our marketing automation system, did not publish to our page. I went into HubSpot and sure enough, our scheduled posts were in the “unsuccessful” folder. This means I’ll have to recreate these posts tomorrow.
For many social media managers who have hundreds of posts scheduled across multiple accounts, there will be a lot of catch up to do once everything is back up and running.
“I ended up having to work from 10:00 pm to 2:00 am to make up for all the planning and posting to get the social out,” said IMPACT’s Ali Parmelee.
And she wasn't alone.
Right there with you. I'm doing everything else on my task list atm to fill time...but that means a possibly late night tonight catching up on the FB stuff.
— Susan Poisson, Tech VA & OBM (@SupSvcMI) March 13, 2019
Finally, the big one -- our community. IMPACT Elite, our community of over 4,500 inbound professionals, lives on Facebook.
There are definitely risks to consider when you build something so vital to your business in a rented space. I’m currently working on a guide to creating online communities that will include a complete breakdown of the options for community building and what to consider.
The tl;dr of it is that for many organizations, IMPACT included, the benefits of being able to build a community on a free platform outweighs the risks. Building a custom-owned community would require a decent investment of resources and time.
When we started IMPACT Elite, we weren’t sure if a community would bring us and the members any value. We’ve since learned that it does but we had to start somewhere, right?
We also knew that the barrier to getting people into our community was pretty low on Facebook since most of our audience already spent a fair amount of time on the social network.
Some things we’ve done to bridge the gap between rented and owned space include encouraging our members to subscribe to our email newsletter, THE LATEST, and launching our advocate community, IMPACT Insiders.
The Customer Service Lesson from Facebook
The other lesson to be learned from Facebook’s outage is one in social customer care.
When something like this happens, people take to social media. It’s not not just to complain though. We’re also looking for answers.
Facebook does tend to update its users via Twitter when an outage occurs. Take this example from November of 2018:
Social platforms have become an amazing tool for customer service, allowing organizations to troubleshoot app issues, rebook canceled flights, and more without requiring users to wait on hold on the phone (ugh, the worst).
Social media is also an efficient communication tool for organizations to keep their followers updated when issues arise. The challenge is keeping your followers updated and responding to mounting concerns. During this outage, users began to speculate that the issues could be caused by hackers or a malicious attack of some sort and Facebook did update followers when they confirmed it was not a DDoS attack.
I've been hoping for a full update from Facebook like this one from their outage in 2010, but after more than 24 hours we got this wonderfully vague tweet:
Yesterday, as a result of a server configuration change, many people had trouble accessing our apps and services. We've now resolved the issues and our systems are recovering. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate everyone’s patience.
— Facebook (@facebook) March 14, 2019
Is dealing with Facebook frustrating and risky? Sure. Is it worth it? You tell me.
In fact, now that Facebook is back up, you can tell me in IMPACT Elite!

Major Bitcoin Exchanges Become Main Targets of Cyberattacks – The Merkle
Cryptocurrencies are relatively young and fragile, but already they’re under constant threats from cybercriminals. Just during this past week there have been multiple attacks on bitcoin exchanges, rendering their services useless and customers unable to buy, sell, or trade cryptocurrency.
Whether by accident or not, these attacks happened at the same time that investors’ interest in digital currencies has also gone through the roof. Cryptocurrencies are being rapidly adopted by multiple countries, institutions, services and agencies. Fundraising through ICOs is also reaching record heights, and people are starting to wonder if the cryptocurrency industry can handle that much attention all at once.
Experts on cryptocurrencies like the CEO and co-founder of a digital currency trading company Citizen Hex, Benjamin Roberts, say that investors must be very careful where they put their money. The more these organizations grow, the bigger the target is on their backs.
The increased number of attacks on bitcoin exchanges seems to confirm this point of view, and recently Bitfinex – which is the largest dollar-based exchange in the US – just reported a DDoS attack this Wednesday. The attack was attempting to increase the flow of data to the platform so that the system would end up paralyzed.
A similar attack also happened on Tuesday, but that one was dealt with within an hour. Still, despite the attack the exchange stated that most of their users wouldn’t be affected and services would resume to normal.
However, these two attacks weren’t an isolated incident. In fact, on Monday afternoon, a similar attack hit the BTC-e exchange. The fact is that these attacks aren’t really surprising for the seasoned trader, especially with the recent spike in interest in crypto markets.
That doesn’t mean that there’s no danger though, since cyber attack can have a quite the impact on the entire bitcoin market. For example, bitcoin’s price is set by multiple exchanges that are located around the world. If one of them was to be shut down, then the price differences could end up changing. There are also opportunists who are waiting for something like this to happen, and they would be ready to exploit the situation.
It’s true that the currency is still unstable, and on Monday, it even went down for $400 because of exchange problems. Only a day before that, it reached $3,000 for the first time ever, and on Wednesday, it went to $2,571. As you can see, each day is a different story. Hackers are taking advantage of the market instability to cause havoc with potential price manipulation in mind.
There’s also the issue of overwhelming traffic on the exchange websites. Coinbase for example, reported multiple complaints from customers who couldn’t access the website on Monday. The cause of the problems was simply too much traffic. Furthermore, Coinbase became inaccessible last night meaning users couldn’t transfer their coins or buy or sell cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin Exchanges are now breaking their records on a regular basis when it comes to unique viewers. At the same time, the business for these companies keeps on growing. Coinbase has even also recently opened 25 new positions as a response to this influx of business.
It is imperative that these services remain functional during peak times because it is necessary for Bitcoin’s growth. After all, we don’t want Bitcoin to look like it can’t handle an influx of users. If cryptocurrency services remain uninterrupted during busy times, it will show new investors that the industry is reliable and is ready for further growth. Let’s hope that these big Bitcoin exchanges enact preventative measures for future vulnerabilities and remain resilient to ongoing cyber attacks.
