Cox taking on Healthcare??

"(Reuters) - Broadband and cable TV provider Cox Communications Inc [COXC.UL] and the Cleveland Clinic medical center will announce on Thursday a new venture to develop in-home healthcare services, stepping into a market that is poised to grow as medical care goes digital."

This scares me to death. I don't even trust my ISP with my firmware, nevermind home security...and now health care? Yikes. What's next? Lets just hope they don't try cellular again. ::cringe:: When will Cox learn to stick to what it's good at?

And with Giglife you get a holographic doctor who gives you 3D printed pills in the shape of a spaceship.

Oh I admit it's the "future", but I think Cox could wade into the IoE with alot less risk if they just focused on internet side of it and not so much the healthcare. Something more like partnering with a electrical company to offer internet over power.
