[LINK] [PRIVACY] BT: 'Are meters too smart by half?'

[Richard Chirgwin]

I'm resending this without the previous post because something is 
scrambling in the fonts.

I have some friends in the Southern Tablelands who have never been 
"on-grid". The place was solar from day one, mostly because that was 
cheaper than getting someone to run a line several km for the grid 
connection. The only missing "mod con" is an air conditioner.

In what way is a system like that not sustainable?
