How a smart meter knows what I'm watching

   Posted on [32]January 15, 2013 by [33]Menno van Doorn

   Last   year   Researchers   of  from  M|nster  University  of  Applied
   Sciences demonstrated  that  consumers  can be identified via the data
   collected by  a  smart meter, from the types and amount of devices, TV
   shows  being watched  and  scan  for  copyright-protected (or pirated)
   movies.  If  you want  to  see  how  they  predict  what movie you are
   watching, based on
   data  form  your  smart  meter,  start  at   approx 14:40 minutes. The
   video is called "Smart Hacking For Privacy"

   The  brightness  of  the  backlight  influences  the  energy  use  and
   is refelcted  in  the  data  that go to the smart meter. The fact that
   smart meters  collect  data every two seconds makes it possible to get
   very accurate  graphs.  That's how they are able to recognize patterns
   in
   energy use and compare with patterns in a movie database.

   What's    your    opinion?    Should    we    keep    these    Privacy
   Intrusive Technologies out of our homes? Or should we fix the problems
   with Privacy  Enhancing  Technologies? Here's what I think. Fix it: we
   need a smarter grid.
