The Internet of Things Privacy Forum is a legitimate, non-profit think tank founded by Dr. Gilad Rosner, with verified past funding from the Hewlett Foundation (approx. $500k, matching the 'marketcap' figure). It has produced influential policy reports in partnership with UC Berkeley and UK government bodies. However, the project appears currently dormant (major activity peaked ~2018-2019), and the submission contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'most people' have used it) and poor formatting. The score reflects high historical utility and credibility, heavily penalized for current dormancy and submission quality.
