⚠️ Consumer tech alert: Google sunsets support for first-gen Nest thermostats 🏠🛑

Google announced that by 2026:
🔥 Early Nest devices will lose key features
🔒 Security updates will stop
📱 Remote access via apps will be restricted
💸 Customers are expected to migrate to newer models

🤬 🤬🤬 🤬🤬 🤬

The decision raises important questions about the true lifespan of smart home devices — and what consumers can reasonably expect from their tech investments.
