Installing a myriad of smart home devices (which seems to the ‘in’ aspiration of the day), is like building houses with all glass walls, ceiling and roofs and no curtains. You are leaving yourself open to wholesale prying and you will have no idea who is doing it, where they are or what is their intent. If you are confident of setting up foolproof firewalls - and that is certainly not a widespread talent - you might get away with it. But the security protecting the majority of smart devices is rudimentary to say the least.
