I've been playing around with a firewall today when suddenly I got a incoming connection from "census3.shodan.io:
So I denied the connection and immediately Google the server address and found this article.

Let me stress the fact that I'll never support IoT after this. (Internet of things)
One very good reason to have a proper firewall. One that blocks all connection (in or out going) except that added to a whitelist.
