Man discovers his parents’ coffee machine used 1TB of data in 10 days

一名男子在发现父母的智能咖啡机在短短10天内传输了1TB的数据后，决定为他们购买一台新的咖啡机。

Going by Nomad, the man shared his discovery on X after checking their parents’ network activity and finding that their coffee maker had generated far more traffic than they expected.

这位网名为Nomad的男子在检查了父母的网络活动，发现咖啡机产生的流量远超预期后，在X（原推特）上分享了他的发现。

After his post went viral, Nomad explained that he had worked in IT for more than 10 years and decided to look further into what had happened.

在帖子走红后，Nomad解释说他从事IT行业已超过10年，并决定深入调查到底发生了什么。

He found that while the coffee maker had generated 1TB of traffic, most of it stayed within his parents’ home network rather than being sent over the internet.

他发现，虽然咖啡机产生了1TB的流量，但大部分流量都留在了父母的家庭网络内，并没有发送到互联网上。

“This is likely a bug with this unit,” he explained. “It did saturate my AP, that sucked.”

“这很可能是该设备的一个漏洞，”他解释道，“它确实让我的接入点（AP）过载了，这太糟糕了。”

In simpler terms, the coffee maker was generating so much traffic that it overwhelmed part of the home Wi-Fi setup.

简单来说，这台咖啡机产生的流量太大，以至于让家庭Wi-Fi系统的部分功能瘫痪了。

Nomad considered digging deeper to find out exactly what the machine was doing, but ultimately decided it wasn’t worth keeping the device connected.

Nomad曾考虑深入挖掘以查明机器到底在做什么，但最终认为不值得让该设备继续保持连接。

“It’s not worth keeping an IOT device connected that has the capability of bugging out and causing saturation like this did,” he said.

“不值得让一个有能力出现故障并导致这种过载的物联网设备保持连接，”他说。

The coffee maker belonged to his parents, with Nomad explaining that he helps them manage their internet setup remotely.

这台咖啡机属于他的父母，Nomad解释说他会远程帮助他们管理网络设置。

“For those wondering why this is on my network, this belongs to my parents. I don’t police what they buy. I just help with their network, but this is a learning experience for them.”

“对于那些想知道为什么它会在我网络上的人，这是我父母的设备。我不会干涉他们买什么。我只是帮忙维护他们的网络，但这对他们来说是一次学习经历。”
