Respecting the personal space will see a rapidly growing importance. In-your-face marketing can be a serious nuisance, even insulting.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects accessed through the Internet. These objects contain embedded technology to interact with internal states or the external environment. In other words, when objects can sense and communicate, it changes how and where decisions are made, and who makes them.
