| Do the IP addresses botnet members get logged? Could those IP addresses be automatically blocked by DNS until they fix their machine? |

| Lets say your samsung fridge gets hacked and is now a member of a botnet. How do you detect that before the botnet does something? |

You should have some AI agent for managing your "smart" home. At least it's how sci-fi movies/games show it, eg. Iron man or Starcraft II ;) | | |

| IP addresses aren't unique or stable. You can't use them to identify individual devices. |
