@dcawrey:
Agree with you about two key points - Security and privacy for IOT. These both surely are still being battled around. And security is ever green area of struggle - be it cloud, IOT or something else.

Re: IOT 2017 Security
That seems naive in tech, of all industries. By now, they should realize that even when aware of security risks, each time you introduce a fix, there's the risk of introducing new bugs.

@freehe:
Really good point.
Being aware of how to leverage IOT for companies is very critical to make sure that we are getting most of IOT.

Re: IOT 2017
@JohnBarnes I think there are some things that need to still be worked out from a security standpoint when it comes to IoT. Security and privacy will be big battles going forward.
I was just reading about this Amazon Echo case, where investigators want access to a device because it might have info related to a murder investigation. That kind of stuff is scary from a consumer protections standpoint if these devices are listening to everything we say.

faryl,
Welcome to capitalism -- the customers always pay for it. (See, "Businesses do not pay taxes, they just collect and forward them" for another example).

And unfortunately it will be the customers who pay the price for it.

QR codes are the perfect example!
(the worst is websites with QR codes - why not just have a hyperlink?

Re: IOT 2017
Well, in the late 1940s, when aircraft speeds were suddenly about 3.5x what they had been before the war, and when superhighways were suddenly cropping up everywhere to allow people to drive above 50mph regularly, many things were streamlined, because air resistance was suddenly an important matter. Of course it started with fighter planes and race cars ... but by 1952, they were streamlining cabinet radios, coffee tables, and refrigerators, which very rarely operate near Mach 1.
There might be an IoT phase like that. The thing is, will anyone buy either business or consumer products which record data that you aren't interested in order to report it to systems that have nowhere to put it? It's nice that my dishwasher remembers my favorite cycle so I only have to push one button to make it do what I want, but is there any other gadget in the house that wants to know that information? Or what temperature the dishwasher operates at, or how gray the water going by its optical sensors is?
Maybe the temperature, I guess, if we get smart houses that have a waste heat recovery system, as I think many houses probably could profitably have.
