The smart home graveyard keeps filling up

The Verge's new column entry notes that another smart home product, the June oven, is joining the growing list of discontinued connected devices. The piece reflects a wider frustration: smart appliances stop working when companies shut down servers, leaving buyers with dead hardware. Commenters in tech circles are once again debating whether internet-dependent gadgets are worth buying at all.
Why now: Another cloud-dependent smart home product has been discontinued, renewing debate about device lifespans and planned obsolescence.
