anything else is going to be too big a hurdle for a huge portion of the customer base.

That’s just a lie companies tell to try to excuse their theft of your data. They could make it work locally and be user-friendly at the same time if they wanted to, but they just don’t want to.

I don’t think it’s a lie to say that the majority of the customer base cares more about convenience and novelty than security of their vacuum.
