Andrew Jewsbury:
Now, I do think that data mining is a real possibility that would benefit the larger suppliers. We know it happens in many other areas digitally, Cambridge Analytica for one, so why not sophisticated software able to decipher the blips of electronic noise generated from the many examples of 'IOT' ?
Presumably someone would have to hack the smart meter itself and replace its software to get access to the 'raw noise' - otherwise pretty much the only interesting data available would be the kWh totals for each half-hour for the last 13 months.
