Arphids
Reading about arphids and the internet of various things, it is undoubtly clear that we have really come a long way from paper barcodes , manually locating lost things to the simplicity in finding and managing them via global positioning systems. But one things which was not touched in detail here is the security issues. Arphids and leaking of data out of computer monitors can prove seious security threat . In india in last month, such security concerns were raised from GPS and RFIDs as it becomes very easy to spy on security instituions and eastiblishments. Also , another issue I feel is the interfacing , as tracking so much information often can lead to complexities in interfacing all of them together.
But despite these drawbacks, it still remains a very important feature of making life simple and simplifying how we interact we various things around us.
