Re: The answer is in the data
Downvote only because of the claim that there is no need to add personal information.
Smart meters, like most data being collected today, is far more valuable with personal information like address, phone, and names.
Particularly when it comes to getting more money from individuals.
Personalised information is why smart meters are installed at each home rather than the nearest substation or transformer. Personalised information is a core feature of smart meters, that is where the gold is and suggesting it shouldn't be or won't mined is IMO rather hopeful.
