Time and time again It takes just one MBA trying to boost numbers to turn a good product into a data collection nightmare.

Honestly is there any IoT brand that we can trust long-term? Maybe IKEA stuff?

companies are profit first, not trust first

Right: It's not the companies' fault they're engaging in deceptive and unfair business practices; they're profit-maximizing machines. They don't care about trust or know what it is.

It's our fault we're letting them do that. Bad behavior should be affecting profits. Probably through regulation.

this is an extremely dumb take, of course the people working at companies are responsible for bad dumb decisions that make their products worse.

The people who actually act responsibly tend to be ousted and replaced by those who instead primarily look after profits. See my other comment.
