That's how the workd should be :-) Any society worth living in is in the end based on trust. The problem with the IOT is that poor security, resulting in Things being assimilated in botnets, affects neither the seller nor the user. It's an 'externalised' risk. Which in turn means that market forces won't fix the problem. Unless those selling (and IMHO also those using) these Things are made accountable for the damage they cause as a result of careless design and/or use.
