Hi James, Stephanie,

yes you are welcome to share information here and I encourage other members to do so.
as someone who tried to do a PhD in IoT (internet of things) related application, I am definitely interested by the trends but also concerned by the sociological and economical impact.

the impact of IoT is amplified by the combination with cloud services (not surprising to see Microsoft and Facebook announcing respectively Azure IoT and messenger framework this week , focused on IoT) and big data. data protection and security remains an open issue, and there were already several problem for application liked to smart home and smart energy.

as software engineer, I see more work and capacity building needed on letting developers aware about privacy by design and think such books would be helpful http://my.safaribooksonline.com/book/technology-management/9781430263555 and http://my.safaribooksonline.com/book/networking/security/9781491904503

Best Regards,

Rafik

Everything written in this piece will apply to your IoT stove, frig, children's coat, garage door, furnace, light switch....you name it. One approach is to say all data is privately owned and that the data miners have to negotiate for what they have access to within the privately owned data.
