Trust and deployment simplicity unlock IoT adoption across U.S. sectors

Yifei Ren argues that public trust and implementation friction are the primary barriers to IoT adoption in America, not technological capability. She contends that standardized safety frameworks from institutions like NIST, combined with streamlined deployment processes, represent the pathway to unlocking massive growth in connected device adoption across both industrial and commercial sectors.
