It's kind of sketchy to upload your floor plan...or is it just me?? https://iot.mozilla.org/docs/gateway-user-guide.html
You are uploading it to a device that runs locally on your network. The domain the docs mention are just for tunnelling - nothing is hosted in the cloud.

#13Really my only use cases are:
* glancing at the screen to see the weather
* Asking it to turn on or off or change colour of Hue lights
* Timers for cooking
I've since unplugged my google box because I felt the sacrifice of privacy with an always listening box wasn't worth it.
At the end of the day the functionality I use isn't that complex and even basic voice recognition I'm sure doesn't require the internet.
So I hope that there will be or there is a platform I'm not aware of that runs it locally.
Certainly Webthings is answering a good chunk of the question.

#18They’re constantly coming up with new ways to make money with aggregated data mining. Mostly it’s about crating services by copying established OSS functionality but still - good job!

I've not tested it but have had it in my starred projects for a while now.
