Nest has literally NEVER been hacked. What happened here, once again, is someone used the equivalent of "password" as their password (or as you even call out, used a password that they used on another site that was compromised) and someone tried it here. They hadn't turned on two factor, or better, used a password…

Honestly, there should be laws on packaging that greatly encourage (or almost mandate) recyclable (or compostable) materials in packaging. There’s recyclable alternatives available for the vast majority of uses of non-recyclable materials, from molded cardboard instead of polystyrene on out. Without (preferably…
