>The hub communicates with the Sleep Number servers by opening an SSH tunnel and providing a reverse tunnel back to the hub that their developers can use to connect to the hub and do maintenance when needed.

Shouldn't bed owners sue them if they haven't been warned of that fact prior to purchase? Getting illegitimate access to your network and backdooring it is criminal offense right?

I'm sure there was a T&C that included all this and you waive rights to complain about this or join a class action about it.

T&C being enforceable and acknowledged by court systems is a true failure of modern society. There should be a hard character limit on any enforceable T&C agreed to by individuals.
