The lousy page does not open in any of four browsers I tried (lynx,
w3m, dillo, even firefox). Finally, cache from goog opened in FF. They
claim to be revolutionary, then proceed to talk about personal
tracking via bracelets and something about tracking animals. So, is
this goobbledybook about home arrested criminals? I think I watched a
movie with very beautiful Robin Tunney who had been chained wirelessly
and waited for prosecution in some decrepit location.

Since their description of themselves is not very clear, I guess they
are going to dissapear.

Please. No. Wait. Can they write an operating system, say, let's call
it Windows for IoTs?
