Does the Internet of Things mean we’ll never be left to our own devices?

Following very interesting discussions about the Internet of Things (IoT) at both the Essential Services Access Network (ESAN) and the Consumer Forum for Communications (CFC), both of which I chair, my colleague Claire Milne organised a small seminar at the London School of Economics (LSE) for a group of us especially concerned about the impact of IoT on consumers and citizens, notably with regard to issues of control and privacy.

One of the speakers at the event was Liz Coll who works for Citizens Advice and has recently co-authored a report for Consumers International (CI). She has just written a blog posting about the CI report which you can read here.
