What brought this theory about? The concept of a network of smart devices was discussed as early as 1982, with a modified Coke machine at Carnegie Mellon University becoming the first Internet-connected appliance, able to report its inventory and whether newly loaded drinks were cold.

My knowledge of the do’s and don’ts in the online world was expanded. I learned that I must secure my passwords because if they get hacked, it will affect my social life greatly.
