I don’t get it. What is the point of “sharing bandwidth?”

Socialism is the point. Amazon is redistributing your wealth using their technical platform. It's a good opportunity to review your firewall configuration and block this theft of service.

It is simple. It is a way to convince people to open a port into their home network so that their personal devices can be more easily hacked. I have been “given” 3 amazon devices over the years, and refuse to implement them, simply because I dont want anything “listening” to the conversations in my home ... then F-N Dish built the crap into their boxes and used that to replace their voice control on the remote, so I dumped Dish. Now Xfinity doing the same. Running out of options to keep the stuff out of my house. According to the article, this is now built into Ring so now I need to toss the Ring.

"I don’t get it. What is the point of “sharing bandwidth?”"

A. A way to allow easier eavesdropping on your digital traffic.
B. A way to "redistribute" a form of wealth.
C. Yet another scheme to chip away at individualism and gradually bring us to collectivism.
D. All the above.

********

It’s so homeless vagrants can cluster up and camp on the sidewalk in front of your house and burn up your bandwidth while searching the dark web for illegal drug deals and watch snuff porn on your net.

Of course, that’s not in the sales slogan but this is how this idiot crap tends to turn out, by design.

Sales slogans are for idiots, after all.

So that when your neighbor starts downloading child pornography, the FBI will come knocking on YOUR door.

Just another way to target the Deplorables for extinction.
