Probably nobody.
As things stand, there is a race to commercialise IoT, e.g. Nest, DropCam, WiMo, Swann, etc.
The wet dream that these companies have is to accumulate BigData which they will monetise. Their plans are intrinsically insecure. Too much data going out over the internet. Real IoT (and M2M) does not require every sensor to be on the internet. But that is contrary to capturing all the DATA.
- DyslexicAtheist 10y agoI agree on the problem of finding a business model that isn't based on harvesting data in exchange for a "free" service. slightly off-topic though ... IMO time is ripe for thinking beyond client-server. Decentralized models where a single actor doesn't control your data should hopefully be the future. There is lots of (too much) buzz around future blochchain/p2p based solutions that aren't built on top users privacy.
