More important is to remember the fact that IoT stands for "Internet of

That would make an interesting value-add, either build an Internet of Targets
DMZ into existing home routers, or sell an add-on (maybe an Alix PC running
pfSense) that does this for you.

Of course then you need to punch in holes to let your fridge tell your
cellphone that it's out of celery, and it's game over.
