IoT without Internet is just oT. I agree that not all embedded devices with networking capabilities necessarily access the internet, but I don't think you can call something that doesn't use have WAN access "IoT" just by definition.
I think many devices without WAN access would fall under the "ICS" or even SCADA umbrella.
Personally, I'd support a law that forces companies to expose their source code when they stop supporting IoT devices. Forcing companies to balance their trade secrets with customer updates should help the internet get more secure, even if it raises the prices at first.
