Consumers Warm To Sharing Smart Device Data

As more devices become connected in the home, consumers may, for a price, be willing to share some of the data being generated by those devices.

While that price may be financial through discounted utility bills, U.S. households also are interested in sharing data for services, according to new research from Parks Associates.

More than a quarter (27%) of households said they would share data from their smart products to automatically register for warranties and check warranty coverage and nearly as many (26%) said they would share data for updates and improvements to their devices.
