I see so many ways for someone to get killed by this

Oh yes, please use nothing but a cheap capacitor to prevent my house from burning down when I accidentally run the coffee pot, microwave and toaster oven at the same time. That should be plenty.

Is there a way I can also contribute to a botnet at the same time? That would be ideal.

That's fine, when that happens just open the app to reset it, and disable the overcurrent limit so it doesn't inconvenience your coffee pot, microwave and toaster activities. Clearly you're trying to get breakfast ready, surely the circuit can handle the overload for a while.
