Re: Wishful thinking

This is exactly the point they should not be allowed to use the Internet, period. They either talk to a local gateway or they stay in their jurisdiction wherever they are manufactured.

I would prefer the gateway to MINE and this is the only way they will be allowed in my household. That is unrealistic for Joe Average consumer - there the gateway and the isolation will have to be provided by the SP. The latter can and should be regulated and legislated.

By the way, most SPs can run isolation for IoT today already - the support for that is in the CPEs and the management systems for them.

In either case it is a matter of restricting the SERVICE DESIGN, not the hardware interfacing to the service. Unfortunately, this is something neither the regulators, nor the SPs have groked at this point.
