Honestly, I find this post pretty unfocused. It's scared of efficient light bulbs because they could be used for surveillance while ignoring that 91% of the US' adult population (source) has a device in their pocket that can more clearly and more accurately record, with a time and pretty accurate position stamp, everything they say, whether they record it or not. Did I mention that device can track location? And then they use the device to browse websites that are known to be monitored by the governments and corporations alike such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram (and I think SnapChat?). We already give the watchers most of our data with our cellphones, there is most likely nothing that these LED bulbs could give them that they would not get otherwise.
