Where is this LG&E meter webpage please? I can't find it.
Many thanks,

Hi all,
A ways back, LG&E offered 'advanced' [1] electric meters. I declined, thinking that this was just part of the stampede to 'smart' technology.
This week I got a snailmail letter saying that we all have to join the stampede, or pay $17/month extra ($12 on electric, $5 on gas). I went to the meter website to see what it said, and LG&E claims up and down that the network will be secure.
Am I a fool, or does putting all the meters on a big network just make it easier for bad actors to make a mess of the utilities and cost them more than driving around reading the meters? I certainly don't feel a need to pull out my phone to see what my hourly electricity usage happens to be.

[1] Uses the network! Will break sooner!
