ProIoT Consumer Trust Seal
A browser extension that automatically checks IoT products on Amazon against public vulnerability databases, update history, and FCC compliance status, showing a “Trust Score” so consumers avoid cameras that leak GPS.
Target Audience
Privacy-conscious consumers shopping for smart home devices who are alarmed by news of TP-Link Kasa leaks and want to compare before purchase.
Why Now
HN story 'TP-Link Kasa cameras leaked home GPS via unauthenticated UDP for 6 years' plus FCC commissioner’s regulation proposal (Ask HN) highlight consumer lack of transparency. YouTube Short 'Someone Built A Button To Fix Amazon Search' shows frustration with Amazon’s product filtering. No extension yet scores IoT products on security.
