#1 Circa not too distant future: "First thing we do when we come is "blank" the place. The blanker uses AI to force its way onto the house's router. Takes 3-5 seconds at most. The big AI boosters never saw that one coming. Then we can just make it seem like everyone's asleep or make the home assistants hear whatever we want 'em to. Then we do whatever we came to do. On the way out the door, you push another button, and the blanker cleans up all the logs and away we go."
