new paper from the IWGDPT

Dear Milton,

“but if you look carefully none of the protocol developments you mention are being applied to connected vehicles”

1) That is not really true, give me a car and I will configure a 6LowPAN network in it and get it connect to the Internet! :D.

2) "None ….. are being applied” does not mean “none …. Can’t be applied”. Indeed, even if you think they are primarily used in automation and entertainment applications in Home, office and factory environments, nothing prevent them (technically) to be used in a connected vehicle and allow remote access/configuration/sensing. 

A simple application could be to attach one or some of those devices to a car and use a gateway to connect to the Internet. If you also look carefully at the LoRaWAN project, you may see that it is possible for a GPS sensor/tracker attached to your car to get connected to the Internet and allow an insurance company to have access to it. There are already many applications like that: connected cars are integral part of smart cities, and as such, it is not very “static”.

But as Steph said at the beginning it is not really nor yet within our scope. We should let that for future discussions ;)

Especially the 6LowPAN <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6LoWPAN> (IPv6 LoW Power wireless Area Networks) protocol is an adaption of IPv6 for such devices and there is an IETF group dealing with that. (LoRaWAN <https://lora-alliance.org/about-lorawan> is an example of large scale deployment of IoT devices using IP)

So we should not deny any possibility too early. I believe that at some point there could an adapted DNS/DNSSEC protocol for the stub servers within IoT devices/gateways. Therefore, it could be a game changer.

The latency involved in resolving domain names would not be suitable for vehicle guidance. It’s not even clear that internet protocol will be involved in these technologies.

No specific focus on the DNS but this working paper is a good roundup of latest data protection thinking on this topic.  There will undoubtedly be domain names involved at some point, the question seems to me to be who will control the data from a content perspective.
