      This is such a terrible idea its hard to understand how it actually came to pass.

      I am honestly flabbergasted. Its like an Onion headline except its real life.

      I have no adequate words for how bad this concept is. Smfh.

      Ok, as stupid as this product is, who exactly did people imagine the other „end“ in „end-to-end“ was? Of fucking course they can, that’s literally the point of the product.

      as wild as 2025 has been, most of our bingo cards did not have:

      Toilet company breaks cryptography

      We’re not too far off from subscription models on toilets . Imagine using a bidet and you can’t spray your ass until you watch 45 seconds of ads on tbe free tier and the level 5 pressure washer is locked behind a premium sub model. True enshittification circle.

      I like to think that the whole product is the result of some guy at Kohler getting caught searching for porn, and he had to come up with some bullshit on the fly about a pitch he was preparing.

      Given the other end of the end to tend encryption is the company (did anyone really think you’d be sending pictures to your friends) it seems blindingly obvious to me that the company would have access to the data.

      To many people think of encryption like a magic spell.

      edit: especially because they say they are analyzing it.

      The connection between your computer and your bank’s website is „end-to-end encrypted“ and the bank can, obviously, read the data sent to it.

      It’d be rather pointless for one of the endpoints to not be able to read the data… Presumably the people paying to send Kohler scat pics want Kohler to do *something* with them, right?

      End to end encryptions are horse shit, they’ve been broken through several times

      Why do they want to take a picture of my ass? What data are they going to train with their AI?

      End to end encryption implies that there’s two ends. Your bathroom is one end. The other end is at Doug’s desk in Kohler’s IT department. He’s been enjoying the pictures. Keep ‘em coming.

      it is pretty unbelievable that they would not notice the obvious: they are going to receive thousands of pictures of children’s genitals and one lawsuit will ruin their entire company

      This is encryption hairpinning. They encrypt the data from the camera and one end to the database at the other. They then encrypt the data from the database as t one end to the app at the other. So each independent leg is end-to-end encrypted.
