Yup - so much for the dire warnings about the Internet "going dark"... they're about to see the deployment of exponential numbers of devices where security is (if I'm optimistic) a "bolt-on", ad which will generate a constant stream of cloud-bound data, straight from your fridge/lightbulb/pants.

I thought DKG put it very pithily in Yokohama: "it's not that the Internet is going dark, it's that the agencies have been staring at the sun for the last decade or so" (not verbatim quote, apologies to DKG for any inaccuracy!)

Yrs.,
