There had to be some system of selecting who was going to have those slots and not giving them to government propaganda stations editorially controlled from outside the country strikes me as a reasonable enough filter.
My experience with video through CollegeHumor had taught me that hosting user-generated content without a filter would lead to inevitable legal trouble with the big media companies.
Featuring a touch screen display, the Wi-Fi Smart Thermostat is equipped with mobile and email alerts that put homeowners in control by notifying them when their home is too hot or cold, the humidity level is too high or too low, when the filter needs to be changed, or if the ho me loses power or Internet connectivity.
