    💡Learnt A Lot
    🎯Worthwhile
    🚀Unputdownable

    Твой холодильник не будет говорить с твоим телефоном. Через три секунды после того, как хлопнет дверца морозилки, он расскажет о мороженом, которое ты взял, производителю и его PR-службе. Интернет Вещей, увиденный как коалиция меж княжествами и рыцарскими орденами, как продукт новых иезуитов – антидот против красивых и вылизанных текстов про радости жизни в умном городе.
    Читать вместе с Shaping Things и "Обратной стороной Интернета" Евгения Морозова.

      The real problem with this scenario is that the reader thinks he’s the hero of the story.

      People in the Internet of Things are like the woolly livestock of a feudal demesne, grazing under the watchful eye of barons in their hilltop Cloud Castles.

    • Niels Ørbæk Christensenhas quoted5 years ago
      It follows that most “things” are too humble and common to use the elaborate, aristocratic protocol of the Internet of Things. Lesser things have come to make do with alien protocols that use less electricity, such as MQTT, XMPP and DDS. These unruly “things” are like Balkan peasants muttering Albanian and Croat when their lords and masters want them to speak classical Latin
