<Insert battlestar galactica reference> :) [1] One thing is sure: we won't ever make 100% secure networks. For now, ransomware are few and only on a big scale, but they could indeed become a big problem with IoT. I'm not exactly sure why we need to connect those devices to the internet: sounds like a local network should be enough. And if we want to send usage data to some kind of aggregation service, devices still can issue POST requests to our connected desktop, or be bluetooth connected to our mobiles.
