:Not a mod and so won’t implement it myself but there is a ‘consumer tools’ section if you scoll down very far that this would kinda fit in to.

== Itron article has been flagged for questionable relevance. == | |||
I believe the [[Itron]] article has been mistakenly flagged for questionable relevance. I have added several Incidents to the page to further show Itron's systemic patterns of consumer privacy violations please see the below: | |||
''Itron's Smart meters allow them to collect, process, and store data without the end users' knowledge. (1980-Present)'' | |||
''NYSEG requires customers to switch to Itron Smart meters or face monthly charge (November 2022-Present)'' | |||
''CenterPoint Energy requires customers to switch to Itron Smart meters or face one-time and monthly service charges (Unknown-Present)'' | |||
''Southern California Edison requires customers to switch to Itron Smart meters or face monthly charge (Unknown-Present)'' | |||
Smart meter (and smart grid solutions) usage by utility companies involves a lot of layers but these are what I find to be most concerning: | |||
''Lack of data privacy, utility companies can freely share customer data with third party smart meter companies (such as Itron) without customer knowledge.'' | |||
''Lack of freedom to choose whether or not you have a smart meter recording your electricity usage. This data can be used to infer all sorts of things from what kind of appliances you own to when you are home.'' | |||
''Itron's Data Processing Agreement is un-viewable (at least for me) and not easy to find either, and end users typically do not know they will have an Itron smart meter until after it is installed by their electric company.'' | |||
Itron is not the only smart meter and smart grid solutions game in town but they are big and not end user friendly,. | |||
