    The part that bothers me isn’t so much that someone came up with the idea that they could sell a toilet camera marketed as a health app.

    It’s that it made it far enough to actually be produced and sold. Which means someone tried to go the route of making it a medical device, was told “No” for some reason or another, but said “you know what, there’s still money to be made here” and they found people that had no problem making it. If they did have a problem making it, I suspect they no longer work for the teams making it. But because it’s here, they found enough people to go “ok whatever.”

    And that’s how we end up with the modern dystopia.

    There is no reason for a camera to ever be in a bathroom for any reason. And no matter what reason they can come up with there will always be a downside that is substantially worse.

      I mean a pinpoint accurate bidet that is assured of 100% clean. It does make me think of that little robot asking rick what its purpose is though.

    I don’t need a video recording of my bathroom habits to tell me I need more fiber and more water. Or remind me that liquid bread satisfies neither.

    $599 intial cost, plus $70 or $130 a year. I’m happy that they are finding really amazing, break through products to offer us. Surely this is the continued excellence we can expect from the ai frenzy. Wow!

        That I could go for. It might actually help people with special needs.

        This is just crap (pun intended)

    Or, and bear with me on this, we could educate people on basic matters of health. Crazy, I know! But what if?

    Of fucking course you need to have their app to get any useful data from it. I certainly trust a plumbing manufacturer to have solid cybersecurity, and there certainly won’t be any data breaches of people’s poop data. When do you think we’re gonna get FOSS poop cameras?
