you control your privacy, it's very simple.

you share information over internet, then it's your responsibility. 

Remember: there is nothing called 100% protection and secure in Internet and privacy too.

What rights should consumers expect?

Consumer Reports thinks that manufacturers of Internet-connected devices should tell consumers in easy-to-understand language about the types of information being collected by those devices and how that information could potentially be shared, sold, and used. Device manufacturers should also give consumers options to control the collection and use of their data. We also support the work of the Federal Trade Commission, whose recent report on the topic states that the agency “… will continue to enforce laws, educate consumers and businesses, and engage with consumer advocates, industry, academics, and other stakeholders involved in the Internet of Things to promote appropriate security and privacy protections.” The FTC also urges more self-regulatory efforts by industry, as well as better data security and broad-based privacy legislation.

Yes and no!

The internet of things has to be a minus to simplify our life.

But when companies and social networks use our private data without our knowledge, in this case we must worry.
