? You may even, rightly, worry that your smart home devices are vulnerable to a hacker attack. But what about that household essential, found in every room and about as"dumb" and disconnected as you can get, the light bulb? Yep, hackers have found a way to eavesdrop on conversations from as far as 80 feet away thanks to a hanging light bulb.
