I would suggest to my peers, that the links you gave are "official channels," and are probably what you really want, as opposed to a rather rambling thread of comments.

I sort of want both. Official commentary moves the needle, but selfishly, I love the thread comments. People tell you what they really think, and sometimes go into a lot of detail as to why. It's an education for me.

I think IoT security is a huge issue, and I think that the solution could be that there are standard, open-source, open-license, free-to-use packages; maybe written in languages like C, that could be offered to the industry. These could enforce low-level compliance with security standards.

"Universal basic security" would probably be a major field of policy approach if we found ourselves with some huge disaster requiring a regulatory response. It's at least worth thinking about now, even if it goes beyond the scope of what the immediate regs can do.
