[Chapter-delegates] Internet of Things

[Alejandro Pisanty]

Hi,

a way to make this more concrete is to act with associations of firms and
of developers. One effective tool (not a silver bullet) is to look at Codes
of Conduct. Organizations like the IEEE already have some well-developed
ones. I also know that at least some firms associations are working on
them; one, notorious for me, in the Denver, Colorado area (US.) And of
course organizations oriented towards privacy protection and waving the
banner of privacy by design are natural for his purpose.

ISOC chapters and HQ can cooperate so that we can have broad principles and
deep understanding interacting and iterating with the more local,
 fine-grain efforts.

A first, concrete task would be to just collect what is out there and
catalogue it. Another, work on the definitions of privacy, which may run a
broad gamut from narrowly, legally defined personal data protection to a
broader concept of intimacy.

Yours,

Alejandro Pisanty
