This seems a bit sensationalist.

Guy hacks smart vacuum. Smart vacuum behaves different than standard vacuum. Manufacturer kills vacuum remotely.

As the business running the servers of smart vacuums, if I saw an atypical device reporting in, without context, I too would kill that device.

Because they're vacuums. Why would they not be homogenous?

The business has no right to remotely kill a device purchased by an end user.
