Mainly IoT risks are,
It may cause some unpleasantness, Many of us do not want to be automatons, Violation of privacy is having many of us worried and many. Ravi Namboori director of Equinix has explained you clearly on IoT risks.
2. What Is IoT?
Internet of Things :
It is an avant-garde technology where it will be
possible to link physical objects of all types possible to
the Internet by embedding them with sensors having a
unique Internet protocol (IP) address.

3. IoT Benefits:
It will turn all physical objects into
computing devices, so that we can
perform everyday tasks remotely.
For e.g., with IoT, we can switch on our refrigerators, AC's,
TVs in our homes while driving a car.

4. But What About Risks...
May cause some unpleasantness
Many of us do not want to be automatons
Violation of privacy is having many of us
worried
security can sometimes be compromised

5. Mainly Hackers Problems:
How can normal citizens be
guaranteed safety?
coz, even government
websites have had
Distributed Denial of
Service (DDoS) attacks.

6. Few More Risks
Over-dependence on technology
Lack of control
Monopoly & destroy competition problems.
Where will this entire information be stored?
Effect of IoT could be the loss of jobs as
everything will be automated, making human
intervention superfluous.

7. Conclusion:
Finally before IoT can be a reality,
it is necessary that devices of one
brand, with a proprietary
technology, are able to talk to
another brand's devices.
And organizations need to come to
a consensus on an international
standard of compatibility.
