  • Leave your mobile phone at home as it knows when you’re driving, speed, acceleration, routes, times. Then you have the CCTV on the roads tracking your every move with your licence plate and facial recognition.

    And when you get home turn off the smart TV, smart fridge, smart dishwasher, doorbell cameras, Alexa’s, Google’s. These devices aren’t for our convenience primarily; they’re built to collect our valuable data about our living habits.

    Digitally connected electricity, gas and water meters all monitor our usage thus working out our lifestyle patterns and habits. Even smart lightbulbs have the capacity to snoop on our private lives.

    From the moment we wake up to turning off the light these connected devices quietly gather data about us innocuously… even when we sleep (phones monitoring breathing sounds).
