Probably but I have to assume they’ve accounted for that and in their assessment the risk of breaking the usage agreement is greater than the value and effort required to exploit the device
No, the maker has stated they have measures in place to detect any tampering, and that if you tamper with the device, fail to connect it to the Internet, or do not use it frequently they will make you return it or pay for it.
I have no doubt people will be able to hack it. What I’m saying is there is no way it could be hacked without the company finding out and forcing you to return it or pay up. When you sign up you have to give them your personal information and credit card. If you disconnect it from the Internet, filter its Internet traffic, or modify it in any way they will tell you to return it and if you don’t return it they will charge the credit card.

Wonder if it’s hackable?

So yeah, it’ll be rooted in three weeks…

From their terms of service:
If they can hack it there’s a way to do it covertly. It’s only a matter of time.
