I'd rather the industry standardizes on some sort of guest network and proxy/hub. It could even ship with hardware from ISPs. Separating the network buys you a lot of security, and running everything through a proxy makes it easier to inspect data and creates a standard hook for using abandonware.

Many manufacturers are already moving there of their own accord. I really don't think we'd need some legislation to fix this problem.

Ehhh I can see it. The right attack at the right time could directly or indirectly kill people, and that’s ignoring the fact it can cause economic havoc.

Having the entire internet function on a “pay or be nuked” threshold that could easily get much worse if companies like cloudflare become less ethical (not that they’re saints).
