  The Internet of Things promises a connected environment reacting to and
addressing our every need, but based on the assumption that all of our
movements and words can be recorded and analysed to achieve this end.
Ubiquitous surveillance is also a precondition for most dystopian societies,
both real and fictional. How our personal data is processed and consumed in an
ever more connected world must imperatively be made transparent, and more
effective technical solutions than those currently on offer, to manage personal
data must urgently be investigated.
