Episode synopsis
Is it really that 'smart' to use more and more smart devices? The smart fridge makes sure there's always stock, the smart speaker listens to all your commands and the curtains automatically open or close. But these devices with your personal information are all connected to the world wide web. Journalist Huib Modderkolk explains whether that's smart or not. Jard Struik also visits the visually impaired Fabienne who explains how smart devices can help her in her daily routine. And Jard checks whether smart speakers can really understand everything.
