Over a week? What were they thinking?

"for more than a week Arjun Sud and his family have been in a panic over strangers who apparently had access to their network of Nest devices,"

So let me get this straight ... Their so-called "security" devices were talking to them, and they didn't unplug them immediately?

Here's another system that was compromised, and left running for an undefined period of time.

Just goes to show, the weakest link in any security system is the user.
