As the article states more and more things are becoming connected to the internet through RFID. Casual things from light bulbs to dishwashers and thermostats.
I believe as time passes it will become a norm that all of our electronic home aplliances and devices are connected to the internet and are being controlled from any location at any time.
I dont believe that this will become a privacy issue. I think that as technology improves the security of our privacy will improve as well. I dont believe hackers will try to figure out our consumption habbits as I dont see how it will help them to know how often do we use our a/c and if our lights are on or not. I do believe that marketing companies will gather this information to try to address us more personally. However I think that if they would have liked to gather such information today they would have been able to even without having all our appliances ‘connected’.
