    You’re right in that it’s a useful tool for various kinds of abuse, but so is almost every useful home automation/home security sensor.

    The most obvious/useful use cases I can see are:

    • turn on bedroom lights when the last person gets out of the bed
    • turn off whole house lights when the last person gets into bed.

    Both should be easy with load cells under the bed legs but rather difficult otherwise.

    (Useful assuming a household of two adults in one bed that is).
