reliance. What happens when that connection is broken and there is no alternative due to reliance on the connection?

5G will bring an aggration of several networks, thus reducing the risk of zero connectivity solution at any given time. That's the goal

power & connectivity are the big issues.

@xlarduinat Should we not rely on a safety net regardless. All technology has a fail factor. Even if it's human error. Looking forward to 5G regardless of course.

issues around privacy - who has what data for what purpose and do you trust them with all of that?

great answers I've been seeing more and more the problems statements aren't about the technology bc the silo'd approach vendors take is not always solving a new horizontal bus solutions

Security and Privacy issues are clearly top considerations

another things that's a data point is the platform & tools in tech are not always the fit for a horizontal scale requirement. everything seems to be vertical

Also issues around artificial intelligence and the decisions being made on our behalf by the algorithms

Security and privacy is huge, you are basically giving access to your entire 'connected' life

The 5G standard is preparing for massive IoT with the necessary interoperability.

connected cities can be hacked and the data, users, and connected devices compromised.

Trust and security. With all the recent news around security breaches, trust is essential in this brave new world of smart cities and the IoT. Trust in security but also in realiability of a connection..

What if security could be managed on the client side and not the service side. And if not, who do you trust with your data? Corporate or Government?

@4R1U5 I suppose it has to be the right "mix". u will require security on both sides...just varied based on the application/use case

connected cities could allow government/corporate (if sponsorship is allowed) entities to track individuals and their behavior

@HaiderME That would be an interesting concept. Encoded handshaking can be very useful. There definitely will be a "mix" of security ownership.

whatabout users acceptance/reluctance/awareness?

good morning

good morning :-)

That's 6am for you! I'm impressed

Up early getting the news. I shared on LinkedIn as well for this connected chat - #smartcities

are we allowed to take coffee? :)

Yep
