Just so I am clear, nobody has made the pun “end-to-end-to-end encryption” yet? Really?
What kind of lunatic is gonna buy an online enabled toilet camera to monitor their shits?
What kind of lunatic is going to covertly monitor someone else’s shits?
Toilet cameras. Every time I think to myself that humanity’s intellectual capacity has hit a new low, reality proves me wrong.
Which means that it’s not end-to-end encrypted. It’s HTTPS encrypted, which is different.
If it was truly end-to-end encrypted, the only person who could access it would be you, and all they would get would be garbled mess.
You know the only thing more ridiculous than buying a toilet with a built in camera?
In October Kohler launched Dekota, a $600 (plus monthly subscription) device that attaches to the rim of your toilet and collects images and data from inside
Buying a camera to attach to an existing toilet, that has a monthly device fee that costs more than a fucking toilet does.
Walking into a meeting at Kohler and keeping a straight face after saying the words “toilet camera”–and then maintaining that straight face throughout the product’s discussion, greenlighting, development, manufacture, and sale–deserves an Oscar.
I mean, it is encrypted between their end and your… uh… end. Just not encrypted at their end.
I wonder who has to review the logs. That would be a shit job.
It is encrypted at their end - they say the data is encrypted both in transit and at rest.
However, it’s not end-to-end encrypted, in the usual meaning of the term. E2EE usually means that only the users can decrypt the data, not the company, their affiliates, or any intermediaries.
