Towards an IoT Good Practice Workshop organized by the DC IoT on 12 November 2015, 09:00 – 10:30, Joao Pessoa.
Internet of Things Good Practice Principle “Internet of Things Good Practice aims at developing IoT products, ecosystems and services taking ethical considerations into account from the outset, both in the development, deployment and use phases of the life cycle, thus to to find an ethical, sustainable way ahead using IoT helping to create a free, secure and enabling rights based environment: a future we want.”
5 basic ideas 1. In order to develop the Internet of Things in a sustainable way developers and deployers need to commit to an ethical approach, taking into consideration that the IoT is really about people and how it affects people. 2. Good practice in IoT products, ecosystems and services require meaningful transparency to users and user control of data produced by or associated with an application, ensuring security, and respect for privacy. 3. Products that can be connected to the Internet should come with a clear indication on what data get collected, where the data are stored, and what the conditions for access are. 4. Stakeholders should work together to ensure consumers/citizens have choice when wanting to obtain current/popular services. 5. In order to establish a long term relevance of IoT products and services it will be key to establish a clear framework on transparency and accountability, with respect for current legislation and pre-empting changes in values and needs of citizens
