I assume you're aware that many "smart" devices these days have a full blown OS, a web browser, and an app store. But then some are missing or have only partial functionality here or there. If the law doesn't unambiguously specify what it applies to it puts anyone in the grey area in a difficult position.

While we're at it, does fdroid count as the sort of app store that this law cares about? Because an end user can install that for themselves.

The GE smart wall oven could meet the definition. I’m genuinely unsure which way a judge would rule. For ovens which do not provide an App Store, I cannot tell what the intent of AB 1043 should be.

I was responding to the scenario set out in the comment I responded to.

> “What’s even an operating system will this apply to my toaster?” - probably not, a judge would ultimately decide.
