The makers of the We-Vibe, a line of vibrators that can be paired with an app for remote-controlled use, have reached a $3.75 million class action settlement with users following allegations that the company was collecting data on when and how the sex toy was used.

The We-Vibe product line includes a number of Bluetooth-enabled vibrators that, when linked to the "We-Connect" app, can be controlled from a smartphone. It allows a user to vary rhythms, patterns and settings — or give a partner, in the room or anywhere in the world, control of the device.

The lawsuit was filed in federal court in Illinois in September. It alleges that — without customers' knowledge — the app was designed to collect information about how often, and with what settings, the vibrator was used.

The lawyers for the anonymous plaintiffs contended that the app, "incredibly," collected users' email addresses, allowing the company "to link the usage information to specific customer accounts."
 
Ha! I saw this and was immediately disgusted.

With myself! For not buying a We-Vibe! Came so close once but went with a Lelo instead. That's $10k I left on the table!
 
Btw, the company behind the hijinks is Canadian. Typical. Buncha maple-guzzling perverts.
 
Between this and the NSAs giant file of my dick pics nothing is sacred.
 
I once left my fitbit on while masturbating. It told me I had run 3 miles.
 
Jesus! :D How mortifying and embarassing


When I saw the thread title I chuckled, thinking that it was just one of phrodeau's tongue in cheeks towards Busybody or RenardRuse.
I never suspected for a sec. that there might be some truth to it.
They're reducing people to… whatever

I would never put my tongue in those cheeks, thank you.
 
The only thing my vibes are connected to is the local nuclear power plant. Other than their occasional bitching about the daily power spikes, it's a nice relationship.
 
I have one. I think one of my first threads I ever posted was about it. I can no longer use it or any other toy that is not glass or metal they did not collect much data from me.

well, it'll have a hard time doing it from the garbage. i do miss vibrating my prostate, but, man, that was a lot of work. also, i should've bought a bigger one. well, longer.
 
Anyone who does not realize that I am one of the 'Guccifers' is an idiot.

This is all in my stories already. Been there for years INCLUDING the part about GCHQ - who I pinned WELL before anyone BECAUSE I KNOW, because I am in this racket!

I even dedicated one story to JBJ and included the internet-linked spying dildo.

I am soon to upload the latest ACTUAL events to do with all of this 'Russian spying' nonsense. It IS nonsense by the way.

(Except for the bits that aren't nonsense which are way to DEEP and complex for most idiots here to understand and TOTALLY outside of the mind-set of comprehension of ALL of the media, including Alex Jones, including Lionel... Well, maybe not those two - but they haven't even gotten close yet).

Believe me, what has been going on is WAY OUTSIDE OF the scales of understanding of most people you know.

The USA dodged a HUGE bullet and you will likely never even know how close you came.

There's been a revolution inside Saudi Arabia, by the way - which is not being covered by the fakestream media. Very very very fortunate situation for us all. Could easily have gone the wrong way.

You can buy IOT dildos in Hong Kong and Taiwan now. (Internet of Things). There already are programs synching the masturbatory styles of various celebrities - FROM ACTUAL DATA.

There's expensive stuff in Dubai via the Dark Web of LIVE masturbation streaming from IOT dildos of celebrities. (Unbeknownst to them).

Please summarize.

What happened?

The disturbing thing is that there's probably a market for that.

They even found out I bought it while living in Florida and put on many hours using it in Illinois.
