Many smart lights are not a security vulnerability. Get those that connect to a local only hub and or if you need access away from home for whatever reason, get HomeKit enabled devices.

Plus, even if remote access could happen, it’s not even a security vulnerability to have a stranger turn on my lights. I just flip the switch off.

I’m sitting here with my red and blue soft lighting in the evenings watching tv and playing games. It’s the perfect lighting.

I mean, an arguably better counterargument would just be: you aren't secure by a massive amount as it is with your normal stuff and the dedicated level by which somebody would have to be to try to vector in through a lightbulb would be state sponsored.

But also, non wifi bulbs just don't introduce this issue at all and never will.

But also, I also use and like rgb smart lights/bulbs, so there's that.
