Open source clones have already appeared and commercial equivalents already exist. The hardware, based on the stuff I read, is almost identical. It needs some polish, but I bloody love the idea.
I learnt about the Photon, when I was looking to see if there was such a thing as an "internet button" - In practice what I wanted was a 2FA thing that sat on a desk and had to be pushed to authenticate. All I'd need it to do was to ping a defined URL with some information.
Press button, turn on, ping, turn off.
I never got there, but..... I still love the idea.
