QUOTE
On the other hand, surveys that intentionly ignore these responses are just creating biased irrevelant surveys.
I think it depends on what they're trying to figure out. If they want to know more about people who play video games, then it doesn't make sense to continue once you say that you never play video games. But if they're trying to figure out general attitudes towards smart home technology, then yeah, they should include people who don't use it, or who use it just a little. In that case, limiting their study to people who already have lots of smart home devices would be short sighted.
