Definitely, new technologies always had this issue though. Regulatory agencies move at a snails pace to adopt new changes - for good or for worse - that's up for debate. Good because new tech doesn't exploit consumers. Bad because haphazardly put together regulations can harm busineses and progress in general.

Unless you meant the IoT part, I'd love to see regulations, let alone enforcement, there.
