Kohler’s Toilet Cameras: Privacy Flushed Down the Drain!
Kohler’s toilet cameras may not be as private as you think. Despite their claims, security researcher Simon Fondrie-Teitler found these devices lack true end-to-end encryption. So, while your rear end might be secure, Kohler’s backend isn’t so discreet. Talk about a bathroom break-in!
Hot Take:
***Hold onto your keyboards, folks! It’s a wild world out there where AI image creators drop more nudes than a sunbathing beach in July, Kohler confuses “end-to-end encryption” with “rear-end decryption,” and the US decides that a trade truce is worth more than a few cyberespionage shenanigans. Oh, and let’s not forget about the cybersecurity agency that can’t seem to find a leader—because who needs one of those anyway?***
Key Points:
– An AI image creator startup left a million images, including nudes, unsecured online.
– Kohler’s smart toilet camera fails at “end-to-end encryption,” raising privacy concerns.
– The US government avoids sanctioning China for cyberespionage to maintain trade relations.
– Sean Plankey’s nomination to lead CISA is stalled in Congress due to political roadblocks.
– Chinese “Brickstorm” malware poses a threat to US infrastructure, with breaches often undetected for over a year.
