So essentially the IoT is going to revolutionise home automation and simultaneously break the internet, sign me up.
Seriously though, is this vulnerability from simple plug and play devices and would it be stopped if there was some piece of kit sitting between the device and the net allowing full internal access but restricting communications with the internet. Ie is there a simple thing a lazy end user could do to prevent being part of the botnet?
