I believe it will at some point become necessary to institute an Internet connectivity tax to discourage people from buying cheap Internet-enabled coffee makers or buttplugs just for the novelty. If a product doesn't deliver an extra $20 worth by virtue of being internet enabled, you probably shouldn't buy it in the first place.

We're also going to need legislation. Connecting a device with remote control capabilities to the Internet without changing the default password is like putting a gun safe on your porch and leaving the keys in the lock. That level of negligence needs to be criminal.

Lol what?

You protect the assets that are valuable, like maybe a DNS server farm. Three olives kuierig isn't the problem.

Your tax plan sounds elitist too, not to mention your criminal charge plan to lock up your own grandma that run an aol browesrer

do you read the news

Mandating minimum security standards for IoT devices seems better than prosecuting people for not knowing why their internet fridge is bad

Yes and agree. That was my point, badly made. Joe plumber can't be held responsible.
