Thank you, Paul. If we move from Person controlled to Device controlled, do we think that people will be willing to give up the control? I am not so sure.

From a business perspective, though the IoT offers tremendous opportunities for growth for realizing the benefits it demands lot of interoperability constraints that can become a hurdle. But if achieved through adopting a standard framework it can become new revenue stream. It is not just about giving up control it is about having convenience and if you are able to view / track it why not automate certain routine activities.
Chris, I think that the big issue .... I think that we will manage that through layers of control... but I can only imahging the legal activities....
