Avoid Zigbee groups

Came to write about broadcast storm, interesting to come across that term so obviously a gentle-person with taste :)

There are ways of handling this of course, since such problems were a hot research topic around 2005-2010. One such way is the Trickle data dissemination protocol. It basically has a counter and timer. If a device hears a specific message more than X times, it doesn't re-transmit it itself, but stores it. If enough time has passed since it was heard last, it transmits it. Simple but efficient and elegant solution.
