Many choose to, or would like to, make their data available to third parties \u2013 either directly as a public resource or channeled through apps and analytical tools.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Visit Thingful.net\" href=\"http:\/\/thingful.net\/\">Thingful<\/a> organises \u2018things\u2019 around locations and categories and structures ownership around Twitter profiles (which can be either people or organisations), enabling citizens to discuss why and how they are using their devices and data. Because, the \u2018who\u2019, \u2018why\u2019 and \u2018where\u2019 are ultimately far more important in The Public Internet of Things than the \u2018what\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/7.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-752\" src=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/7-1024x640.png\" alt=\"7\" width=\"770\" height=\"481\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-748\" src=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/3-1024x636.png\" alt=\"3\" width=\"770\" height=\"478\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/6.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-751\" src=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/6-1024x640.png\" alt=\"6\" width=\"770\" height=\"481\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-749\" src=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/4-1024x543.png\" alt=\"4\" width=\"770\" height=\"408\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/5.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-750\" src=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/5-1024x640.png\" alt=\"5\" width=\"770\" height=\"481\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/8.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-753\" src=\"http:\/\/remotespacin.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/8-1024x640.png\" alt=\"8\" width=\"770\" height=\"481\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Links:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thingful.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/thingful.net\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/umbrellium.co.uk\/portfolio\/thingful\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/umbrellium.co.uk\/portfolio\/thingful\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.haque.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.haque.co.uk\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thingful is a search engine for The Public Internet of Things, providing a geographical index of where things are, who owns them, and how and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":760,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"h5ap_radio_sources":[],"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-historicalexamples","masonry-post"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=734"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/734\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/760"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.mtr.zhdk.ch\/remotespacin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
