The Whole POINT of the Internet of Things Is So Big Brother Can Spy On You
Spying in the U.S. is worse than under Nazi Germany, the Stasi, J. Edgar Hoover … or Orwell's 1984.
Yesterday, U.S. Intelligence Boss James Clapper said that the government will spy on Americans through the internet of things ("IoT"):
In the future, intelligence services might use the [IoT] for identification, surveillance, monitoring, location tracking, and targeting for recruitment, or to gain access to networks or user credentials.
Yves Smith has the definitive comment on Clapper's statement:
Oh, come on. The whole point of the IoT is spying. The officialdom is just trying to persuade you that it really is a big consumer benefit to be able to tell your oven to start heating up before you get home.
