I've been waiting for a good illustration to regulators of why POTS, leased lines, and satellite must continue to get investment & kept separate. On top of the small cases I have. All these people's shit is going down whereas the people using dial-up to BBS's or leased lines between critical sites are still doing just fine. I mean, they do gripe about speed or pricing more than the rest of us but that's the kind of problems they're used to living with. ;)
Note: The major attacks will also get regulators' attention to IoT risk. I have recommendations of techniques and existing products ready for that, too.
Note 2: I think someone will see this saying, "OMG! He's encouraging crimes and damage to happen! WHY!?" Actually, apathy by consumers and suppliers is why it happens and will get worse regardless of what I say. I'm just waiting for the inevitable as an opportunity to improve the situation.
