Can you say "indemnification"?  For some reason indemnification has 
become universal in terms and conditions of Internet web sites.  Once in 
awhile you will find one that either doesn't include this requirement or 
limits it to entirely reasonable conditions such as your violation of 
the law.  But 99% of web sites require you to indemnify them against 
"any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any 
third party due to or arising out of Content you submit, post, transmit, 
modify or otherwise make available through the Yahoo Services, your use 
of the Yahoo Services, your connection to the Yahoo Services, your 
violation of the TOS, or your violation of any rights of another." for 
example.  Notice the clause, "your use of the Yahoo Services".  You 
don't have to do anything wrong.  You just have to be related to the 
claim.  I've even seen terms that refer to your "alleged" breach of the 
terms of conditions or laws.  So nothing has to be proven.

IoT will be run by lawyers and terms like these.
