In the short term, the network will mostly handle the flow of information related to the Internet of Things. Internet of Things has already generated a lot of problems, the solutions to which have not entered into standardization phase and this is just the tip of the iceberg. The inevitability and naturalness of the phenomena linked to the Internet of Things carries also or first of all a lot of risks, both to competition, restrictions on civil liberties, privacy restrictions and many other similar phenomena. Internet of Things is going to cause significant social changes. Economic efficiency will increase, production costs will significantly decrease, energy consumption will decrease and real-time use of both time and resources will be optimized.
