The invention relates to a
connected object (OC) comprising a communication module (MC) configured to receive a downlink
stream (FD) from a
server (S) and / or to transmit an uplink
stream (FM) to the
server (S), wherein the
connected object (OC) comprises a
processing module (MT) and a communication module (MC), wherein the
processing module (MT) is configured to receive data from at least one
data acquisition sensor (C1), and to generate the uplink
stream (FM) that comprises at least a portion of the data acquired by the at least one sensor (C1), and to transmit the uplink stream (FM) to the communication module (MC) via an
uplink channel (CM), wherein the
processing module (MT) is further configured to receive the downlink stream (FD) from the communication module (MC) via a downlink channel (CD), wherein the
connected object (OC) comprises a limitation device (DL) for limiting the uplink stream (FM), wherein the limitation device (DL) comprises a control (CDL) configured to be actuated directly by a user in order to activate or inhibit the limitation device (DL), wherein the limitation device comprises a measurement component (CMD) configured to measure a rate of the uplink stream on the
uplink channel, wherein the limitation device comprises a
limiter (LI) for limiting transmission of the uplink stream via the
uplink channel, and wherein the
limiter (LI) is activated when the limitation device (DL) is activated, in order to limit transmission of the uplink stream (FM) for a limitation period when the measured rate exceeds a limitation threshold.
