Maker of ‘smart’ chastity cage left users’ emails, passwords, and locations exposed
A hacker said they breached the maker of internet-connected chastity cages to warn about security flaws that are exposing users' data.
Some things just shouldn't be connected to the internet.
Apparently I'm one of those things. Jesus, what an article
Unfortunately connecting this kink to the internet facilitates doing it. Having the device itself connect for ease of use had caused an unbelievable amount of tech issues, though. To be fair the programmer is a dipshit, though.
But that just makes connecting those things to the internet forbidden... and therefore alluring.
and therefore alluring.
SomeMost things just shouldn’t be connected to the internet.FTFY
That thumbnail is A+
So is the headline. Chastity cage, exposed. 🤣
Example #4363 why making everything "smart" is a terrible fucking idea
Not inherently, they coulda followed best practices. But this is definitely a reason not to buy smart things.
Next from iot the smart lung
Imagine having your smart cock cage locked out by Amazon because some rando told them you are racist lmao
We live in the weirdest timeline
Better than having it locked on I suppose...
The researcher, who asked to remain anonymous because he wanted to separate his professional life from the kink-related work he does, said he gained access to a database containing records of more than 10,000 users,
10,000 users‽
yup :3
Rule 34 extends to action as well as observance.

Your cock is mine now
I'm dying
That probably worked for most of the clientele.
This exact scenario has appeared in an entirely unsurprising number of chastity stories.
And to think I don't even feel safe about buying something as innocent as a smart TV...
Why oh why can one no longer buy a dumb TV?! Do companies just not make them anymore?!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The researcher, who asked to remain anonymous because he wanted to separate his professional life from the kink-related work he does, said he gained access to a database containing records of more than 10,000 users, thanks to two vulnerabilities.
He also reached out to the company on June 17 alerting them of the issues in an attempt to get them to fix the vulnerabilities and protect their users’ data, according to a screenshot of the email he sent and shared with TechCrunch.
[REDACTED] has left the site wide open, allowing any script kiddie to grab any and all customer information.
“Your cock is mine now,” the hacker told one of the victims, according to a researcher who discovered the hacking campaign at the time.
In 2016, researchers found a bug in a Bluetooth-powered “panty buster,” which allowed anyone to control the sex toy remotely over the internet.
In 2017, a smart sex toy maker agreed to settle a lawsuit filed by two women who alleged the company spied on them by collecting and recording “highly intimate and sensitive data” of its users.
The original article contains 702 words, the summary contains 182 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
No, no, no, no. No. Surely the hacker knows the victim probably did not see that comment as a threat 😭
Sign up for the cage, get a bonus dom!
The chastity belt may be smart, but the maker never claimed to be so.
I feel like like the potential for being exposed as a chastity cage user might actually be a plus for some users
God i hope the users used a email alias and fake names
for people with a penis
So, men?
I wouldn't be surprised if the ratio of trans women to men in the audience of this product was a lot higher than in the general population.
If you transitioned to become a man, wouldn't you want to be called just that, "man"?
Either way, this "people with penises" is the type of waking in eggshells language that makes everyone annoyed just to satisfy a few perpetually slighted. It's perfectly fine to say "men", everyone knows what we mean, nobody is excluding anyone and you can't talk in ways that includes everyone because anytime you try, you'll just end up with yet someone else who feels insulted because you didn't include his particular interpretation of how he/she/xe/sho/is/zil/etc feels....
At one point we just need to remember nthst people typically aren't trying to insult anyone in normal speech and er shouldn't require and force people to our special and particular speech only or feel insulted.
?????
Liberal men on suicide watch
good, cause they where stupid enough to buy a fucking smart chastity cage
Can imagine buying this if you’re in an long distance relationship and into chastity.
The company is the bad guy here, there’s no need to victim blame just because their kink doesn’t match yours.
