OMISSIS ...] ** House Members Urge FTC to Examine Internet-of-Things ------------------------------------------------------------ In the wake of October's massive distributed denial of service attack, two members of Congress have sent a letter (https://democrats-energycommerce.house.gov/sites/democrats.energycommerce.ho...) to Federal Trade Commission Chairwoman Edith Ramirez urging the FTC to protect consumers from insecure Internet of Things (https://epic.org/privacy/internet/iot/) devices. Rep. Frank Pallone, Jr. and Rep. Jan Schakowsky, senior members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, wrote that the FTC should "immediately use all the tools at its disposal to ensure that manufacturers of IoT devices implement strong security measures." EPIC is at the forefront of policy work on the Internet of Things, recommending safeguards for connected cars (https://epic.org/privacy/edrs/EPIC-Connected-Cars-Testimony-Nov-18-2015.pdf) , "smart homes," (https://epic.org/2014/05/google-plans-advertising-on-ap.html) 'consumer products (https://epic.org/privacy/ftc/EPIC-FTC-IoT-Cmts.pdf) , and "always on" devices (https://epic.org/privacy/internet/ftc/EPIC-Letter-FTC-AG-Always-On.pdf) .

But if in the process we learn how to achieve it by love rather than by fear, by kindness rather than compulsion; if in the process we learn how to combine the essential with the enjoyable, the expedient with the benevolent, the practical with the beautiful, this will be an extra incentive to embark on this great task. Above all, remember your humanity. -- Sir Joseph Rotblat
