I think I’ll pass

Eventually they will get a security audit, right?

It would be interesting to build something local that uses tiny models

It is at the scale these stores are operating at

They were literally exposed to the internet

Anyone could and still can connect to them

Internet connected can be useful in commercial environments. When designed properly it isn’t a issue unless someone is really motivated.

The problem is the lack of a Firewall and network partitioning. The vendor was extremely sloppy in the design and security configuration which made it trivial to attack.

The Php vulnerabilities were and are being exploited in the wild

OpenAI is realizing they might be in trouble

If you don’t secure your stuff it will be part of a bot net. Residential IPs and hardware are extremely valuable.

You need a VPN. It will cause inconveniences but the way currently have it setup is highly vulnerable to attack. I would look into something like Netbird or just a plain Wireguard VPN. If they are connecting primarily from home you could always setup a simple proxy device that forwards connections over a VPN from the local network.

Security should absolutely come first. If you can’t provide basic security I wouldn’t recommend hosting anything especially for other people.

Don’t put them on the internet. Seriously, don’t put stuff on the internet. These days critical CVEs are coming out weekly and it is unlikely that you even detect the compromise.

What is your use case? Maybe there is a better way

Just make a bunch Beta-M units for household use

Cats instinctively kill birds and other small rodents. While I certainly see the appeal of outside cats the people arguing based on environmental concerns also have a point.

Additionally you should be really careful letting your cat out as it can get into something and then make you sick as a result

You can train cats just like many other domesticated animals

That’s is certainly something you could do I guess
