International trade law, organized around the goods-services dichotomy, is about to meet the Internet of Things (IoT). How will rules written for the world of 1994 fare in a world of talking teapots and connected cars? IoT will especially raise governmental concerns with respect to privacy, security, and standards. Indeed, governments have already begun taking adverse measures against foreign IoT suppliers based not on the hardware, but on the digital features of the products. This paper argues that IoT devices comprise both goods and services, therefore calling into application multiple WTO disciplines, with the specific agreements that are applicable dependent on the particular governmental measure subject to challenge.

物联网：商品和服务

围绕商品服务二分法组织的国际贸易法即将与物联网 (IoT) 相遇。为 1994 年的世界制定的规则将如何在一个会说话的茶壶和联网汽车的世界中发挥作用？物联网尤其会引起政府对隐私、安全和标准的关注。事实上，政府已经开始对外国物联网供应商采取不利措施，而不是基于硬件，而是基于产品的数字特性。本文认为，物联网设备包括商品和服务，因此需要应用多个 WTO 规则，适用的具体协议取决于受挑战的特定政府措施。
