I think this is a pretty good thing, certainly promising: IoT protocols are by definition accessible to the general public which gives a lot of potential for future developments. Surely not with LoRa in particular, given the microscopical size of the payloads but the fact that it is possible is really promising. Just a decade ago, this would have been unthinkable for any hobbyist. Hell, even the prices of sdr's a decade ago were off the charts and today a semi-decent one to get you started costs a few bucks.
