Wait until Congress passes a new law regulating thermostats in private homes.

California was and may still be attempting to require "smart thermostats" that the government can control so they can raise and lower your energy use as they see fit.

And either a dedicated phone line to make sure they are not tampered with, or a huge bureaucracy to make regular unannounced inspections periodically to every residence in the state.
