IoT: Context is the New Content

Sponsored by The Organization of Legal Professionals

We live in a world where the bots are watching, recording, and reporting everything we do. When Edward Snowden told us the NSA was spying on our communications, the NSA responded by saying "It's no big deal, we're only looking at the metadata, not the content of your conversations."  What the country failed to recognize, and the NSA was counting on, is that the metadata provides a much more compelling and accurate story than the content does.  The IoT is all about metadata - or context.  When were you at a location, what did you do there, what did you buy, what did you eat, who did you meet with - your metadata answers all of these questions.  The alarming surge in the number of sensors that we carry around with us every day, constantly tracking, recording and reporting our each and every action, provides an amazing level of context to our lives.

The IoT is here, there is no putting the genie back in the bottle.  The content of what we say, type, and photograph is important, but the real story is told by the metadata.  Interpretation of that evidence has traditionally relied upon direct human review, but no longer.  The IoT can be used to interpret human data and human actions in digital form with devastating effectiveness. Join our experts, Dan Regard and Charlie Platt, as they guide a lively discussion behind the scenes of the Internet of Things - what is there, how to get it, and how to use it.
