Would you ever live in a "smart" house?

If you could live in a house that knew exactly what you wanted and always provided it for you (i.e. a fridge stocked with your favorite food without you having to shop; clothes in your closet based on your size/likes; home decor based on your likes; etc.) BUT it meant keeping all of your information in some sort of government database, would you still live there?

Yes that'd be heaven to me.  And I have nothing to hide from the government so they can have all my information that they want.

hell no. I've seen way too many movies where those houses kill everybody. I will not be murdered by my house.

That's how I feel about it too Lynn lol.

FI and I were talking about this last night.  He wouldn't want to live in a place like that because he doesn't like to be tracked.  It took forever to get him to agree to a debit card.  That kind of place would be awesome to live in!

I don't care about the gov't having all my info (don't they already?) but I still wouldn't live there because I like shopping and decorating too much.  I would like lights to go on and off automatically and doors to open and close for me though.  That would be super cool and futuristic.

Aside from the creepy "HAL" aspect, I'd probably do it. Hell, the government already has most of our info anyway. Who cares?

 Yeah, I agree with this. I wouldn't mind a few conveniences though. But nothing that could cause a "malfunction" thereby trapping me in the house without any way to communicate with the outside world or otherwise killing me.

Never...would freak me out that my house was "alive".

Zigkiss

I would, I don't care if the gov wants to know about all my boring goings on.

LOL, I agree. I don't care about the government knowing my favourite foods or my clothing size, that's fine. But I would be afraid of the house murdering me.
