Canceled - Permission / Permissioning / Permissionless: Three Faces of IoT Evolution

November 21, 2019 12:00 am

 

This event has been canceled. 

This talk will explore ‘permission’ in the IoT from three perspectives. Firstly, that active consent and permission is further breaking down, leading to a challenges to ‘boundary management.’ Second is a review of the technologies of ‘permissioning’ - frameworks and protocols from the identity management domain that enable users to grant granular permissions to share data. Third is a critique of the ‘permissionless innovation’ discourse within IoT policy discussion, which views government intervention into the developing IoT market as a hindrance to innovation, and decries precautionary approaches to regulation.
