Announcing A New Open-Source Privacy Standard For The Internet Of Things

Posted on March 6, 2017June 25, 2025 by Dissent

Seen on Consumerist:

Consumerist is part of Consumer Reports, the 80-year-old nonprofit consumer organization, and today we are launching the first phase of a collaborative, open-source effort to create a new digital consumer-protection standard that safeguards consumers’ security and privacy.

We encourage you to head over to Consumer Reports to read about the standard, its creation, and more — and if you’re ready to dive-in and contribute something — the full standard is available here.

h/t, Joe Cadillic
