Someone told me that by examining smart meter data by amount, time and duration different appliances could be identified. He was rather surprised himself by the level of detail.

You may be shocked how much more you can get, I heard of being able to identify the movie/tv show you are watching based on power consumption of the TV based on brightness.

Obviously depends on how granular the smart metering is, but it sent chills down my spine.

You may be shocked what you can figure out from... analyzing the sound of a video. https://youtu.be/e0elNU0iOMY

"Sense" does this, although some people have problems with the training. https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/B08N5GWZWQ

Imagine a police force wanting to catch a hacker with his computer unlocked. They could wait for him to make tea to strike.

Or perhaps they could correlate a person's anonymous internet activity with their use of electricity.
