Giving the electric company access to turn off my appliances is also a security issue. By all means, let me subscribe to a feed that expresses what the company would like me to do and maybe I'll set up automations to turn stuff on and off from my end, but there's no way in Hell I'd cede control of the switch to an entity outside the premises.
