They can use blueTooth to send traffic 1/2 mile then another 1/2 mile and the FCC doesn't know/care about this.

I thought it was bad enough how comcast will use your bandwidth you pay for to support their xfinity network.

ataradov:
This is some next level paranoia. What would your light bulb be sending about you exactly? Why would FCC care as long and devices pass certification?

Also, Comcast bandwidth consumption by others does not count against your bill.

james_s:
What exactly are my light bulbs going to know about me? Whether or not the light is on? Out of all the things to concern myself with, this is pretty low on my list.

TimFox:
The drug police used to check for excessive power draw at night, looking for marijuana cultivation under artificial light.

What this has to do with anything? You can get this information from the power supplier. You don't need BLE fro that, you already have monthly electricity bills.
