Smart Device Update Transparency

Many smart device manufacturers do not clearly communicate how long they will provide software updates, which can impact the functionality of these products. The Federal Trade Commission conducted a study of 184 smart devices, revealing that 89% failed to disclose critical information regarding the duration of software support. Without ongoing updates, these devices may lose their smart capabilities and could eventually stop functioning altogether. The FTC advises consumers to consider this lack of transparency when purchasing smart devices, and to proactively seek information regarding support duration from manufacturers.
