I for one welcome the fantastic security enabled by the Internet of Things.

  This already started. TV receivers broadcasting metadata about files on devices connected to the LAN. Routers allowing anonymous access over ftp to the disks connected to them. Routers protected on the WAN side with factory set passwords. Kettles and irons equipped with wifi and looking for open networks to broadcast something to the world. (Smart)phones with broadband processors with DMA access to the applications processor's memory. Computers, tablets and game consoles equipped conveniently with cameras and microphones. We live in the future, do we like this or not.

    I have seen TV broadcast equipment with SNMP and web interfaces exposed on public internet addresses. Days ago.
