Abstract

Internet service providers (ISPs) can peek at the baby monitors, TV set-top boxes and even vibrators that people use in their own homes, as long as the devices are connected to the Internet. And it works even when gadgets are set up to protect privacy. But recent US policy changes to what data ISPs can sell made people wonder if the firms could start profiting from smart-home data. So Noah Apthorpe at Princeton University and his colleagues set up a mock smart home, complete with seven Internet-connected devices, to find out what they might reveal.
