Philips Hue will soon force users to create a Hue account and sign in to continue to use the app and control the smart lights. The best security model to protect smart devices is to keep them disconnected from the internet, or at least keep this option available.

Why do I need an account for a light bulb?
Because a skin sack with an MBA needs their yearly bonus.
Lol
Insightful.
I think it’s mostly for their bridges and their app. Aren’t Hue using ZigBee? You can just use them through HA with sonoff stick or something.
Yup, zigbee+Bluetooth. Am using a couple hue bulbs on my home assistant with a USB zigbee stick.
First time buying an IoT device I take it?
