The majority of this section's content here seems to be just links to commercial applications, which resembles advertising. A simplistic comparison would be to list Ford, Toyota, Mercedes etc... on the Cars page. Granted, the Internet of Things concept is much newer, but does anybody object to removing the content that is linked to commercial applications? The wouldn't apply to the UBC paragraph. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GeminiDrive (talk • contribs) 5 jun 2013 02:17‎ (UTC)

This article would be more useful, if it avoided the content and tone common to advertising pitches about IoT. These are easy to find, but do not offer any specific information on how the technology actually is, or is supposed to work. What is not clear is for example: 1. How exactly IoT networks differ from those for human use. Are they somehow exclusively tailored for data gathering by central servers? Could human operators theoretically use these low-bandwidth networks for person-to-person communication, or is it simply impractical, or even illegal to do so? For example, is opening a connection by a device not possible, not allowed, or very expensive in terms of network resources? Are devices only infrequently polled for data, making it impractical for example to open a voice or text connection on demand? This kind of information is actually interesting for a person who is not necessarily a technical specialist. I think it is more suitable for Wikipedia, rather than incessant examples of potential commercial use cases. Morycm (talk) 02:08, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I would like to ask if is possible to create a stub for the Internet of Everything (IoE), to show the difference between IoT and IoE.
