Though from a security perspective if it's offline it's a lot harder for it to be a threat, or at least as much of one, especially as far as devices for the home market go.
The sorts of devices that depend on a "cloud" service for meaningful network functionality kinda have an advantage here in a weird way, since there are likely to be incredibly few which are connected to a network where they are vulnerable to attack but unable to reach the vendor's servers where an update could be forced.
