This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. There’s a new buzz phrase in tech circles these days: The Internet of Things. And it’s promising to be bigger than the Internet and the World Wide Web ever was. But what is it? And how will it impact our everyday lives? Will it help me? Should I be worried?

Benson Hougland has a passion for technology of all kinds that drives a deep desire to make his work and the world around him better. His interests include making wine, making music, and making memories with family and friends in activities like boating, camping, and traveling.

Benson is a 17-year Temecula resident, husband, and father of two elementary school boys and an adult daughter. As vice president at Opto 22, a local software developer and hardware manufacturer of products used in the industrial automation and information technology markets, he’s responsible for product evolution, marketing, training, and communications.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    fascinating to see this presented as an inherently "good" thing and not the insane violation of privacy that it is and has been

    Sick control freaks are taking control of everything. They want to connect the internet to everything on Earth

    CBDCs and Social Credit are the end game. All roads lead to dependance on the system.

    If this isn't the most terrifying thing you've ever heard…you don't get how dangerous this actually is. The most chilling part is how non-chalant this guy tells us all how we are going to be enslaved. Anyways…

    this has definitely aged well, life is definitely now IoT and eventually settling into IoE (Internet of Everything)
