Wackadoodle: "Smart Vibrator" Company Settles Lawsuit Over Collecting User Information Without Consent, Agreeing to Pay Out $3.75 Million

Brave and Dumb New World, But Mostly Dumb.

I'm linking this story only for one reason. No, not the relentless invasion of privacy we're unwittingly or wittingly permitting in a quest for convenience and novelty. That's obvious already.

I'm linking it because I don't know what the hell a "smart" vibrator is, or why someone would want or need to have a vibrator which is "smart."

I've seen the dumb versions in action, and they seemed to work just fine.

So I'm linking this to find out what Fresh Stupid Hell this is.

Forbes "throws shade," as aging hipster Chris Hayes might say, at the basis of the suit:

Two anonymous plaintiffs had filed a lawsuit because they claimed that they weren't quite anonymous when using the device with their email addresses and...um...utilization data being beamed to the company's servers in Canada. Yes, they were upset that the "We" in We-Vibe included a company, not just company.

I'll bet they won't be anonymous when it comes to the payout.

Not the lawyers writing out the checks, at least.

So this seems kind of stupid already but I still want to know what the hell this thing is and why someone needs something that just vibrates real fast to be "smart."

Here's how the remote control vibrator and the accompanying app are supposed to work. You first purchase the We-Vibe vibrator (because you need to purchase things to use them), download the "We-Connect" app to your smartphone, and then weeee...you can control the vibrator settings (speed, patterns and intensity) from anywhere in the world. The company's website lists the vibration modes as Low, Medium, High, Ultra, Pulse, Wave, Echo, Tide, Crest and Surf. So say you are in Washington, D.C., and someone else is in Hawaii, that person can help you go surfing just by changing settings on the app. Yes, for somewhere between $100 and $200, you can have a device that allows someone who is long-distance to literally turn you on. The app also allows you to text and video chat with others, so you can tell them to change, change, change the Echo mode.

All right, so this that deeply dumb thing I heard of a decade ago called "teledildonics," exchanging tactile stimulation long distance through electronic relay.

I thought this was dumb when I just heard the idea proposed. Now that it's been advanced to working model, I think it's even dumber. It's one thing to have a dumb idea. It's another thing to spend hours of work and thought to bring the stupid to prototype.

So it's for the international cyber-oriented lesbian set. And/or heterosexual couples in different cities who want to spice up their long-distance fling by unlocking Vibrator Super Move by tapping in up, up, down, back B to activate Whirlwind Berserker Rage Swirl with a 10% chance of a Critical Sexual Hit on each RPM.

I guess I don't have any problems with that... per se. But this still sounds very Dumb to me.

For one thing, the best person in the world at masturbating is the user himself. Whenever you try to bring someone else into it, there's a lot of frustration and "Do this, not that" and a general sense of "Why doesn't she get this?" and "I could have been done ten minutes ago."

Just the way it works. No one's fault. But you can't expect some rando n00b to just walk into a job you've been successfully doing yourself for 15-50 years, honing your skills and adapting proactively to end-user feedback, and do it as well as the lifetime permanent employee. The first ten days they're not even going to know where the pens, pads, and toner cartridges are.

I guess the idea is: "But it'll be like the other person is really touching me!"

Yeah, and a treadmill is supposed to be like you're really walking up a hill, but what it really is an awkwardly shaped hanging rack for towels and that one sock that just wouldn't dry in the drier.

I just think this is going to be like those ten million juice blenders people buy and use three times before realizing that spinach juice still tastes like spinach juice and which wind up living empty lives of lonely desperation in that one cabinet where you hide away all your hasty Ronco purchases, and your shame.

First Use: "I can't believe we're doing this!"

Second Use: "Well, I guess we can try again, now that we've got the kinks worked out and we don't have to do an hour of Pair Device foreplay."

Third Use: "Oooh! Madame Secretary is finally on Netflix! Jackpot!!!"

Oh, and speaking from the male perspective, the one thing I appreciate about the vibrator is that I don't have to worry about her orgasm. That's her problem. You do you, as the kids say. I'm gonna microwave some mini-eggrolls; you let me know when you're done.

Drafting me into this process and making me responsible for working the machinery -- and I guess having to perfect my fast-twitch reflexes when doing so, like I just tore open a Gore-Nest in Doom -- feels an awful lot like mixing the worries of performance anxiety with the exhausting tedium of Quicken.

Call me old-fashioned, but I prefer sex the natural way: cruising an AOL chatroom for three hours and finding someone type dirty words at.

It also sounds very dumb that people who are voluntarily sending commands to someone else's vibrator through the intermediary of a third-party company they're paying for the service don't realize the company has access to whether or not they prefer "Surf" mode or "Puree."

So the problems this Forbes article mentions is that the vibrators could be hacked -- duh, anything involving an internet connection could be hacked. It further notes that someone hijacking your vibrator and entering in their own order -- changing your "Tide" mode to "Pulse" mode -- could be guilty of a sexual assault, because the victim didn't consent.

Uhhh... sure. In theory. In very dumb theory.

I expect they'll do a Law & Order: SVU about this, and Ice T will reveal that he was once a victim of Dildojacking.

And the other problem is that the company is tracking usage and etc., which is... it's what all these "smart" devices do.

I mean, duh. What are you, a dildo?

Eh. I don't get it. I didn't care about this story when I heard about it a few days ago and I only bothered to post it to find out what this dumb story is about, and now I find it's even dumber than I expected, and in fact it's so dumb I don't find it titillating.

Sometimes dumb can be a turn-on but not if it's like Tapioca Pudding on Saturdays dumb. Like not when it's institutionally-supervised dumb. Dopey can be hot. Drooling is not hot.

I shouldn't even bother you with this nonsense but I already wrote this crap out and so I'm just gonna post it.

I suspect the BDSM crowd were into this for the "control someone else's orgasm" plan.

Growing up in the San Fransicko area led me, a "Vanilla" person, (yes, that's an actual term) to making this mental connection, I reckon. It's like it is in the air here.

53 Remote vibe control is nothing without remote directional control. Up-facing, downward-facing, all kinds of directional intensity control should be possible with multi-stage vibration, multiple eccentric motors. Just heterodyne them - direction sense the current effective "push", tune with PWM, and have minimum three running at speed multiples.

Just controlling the mode long range is horseshit. We can do better.

242 Well somebody beat me to the OT about the latest lawless judiciary festival involving the executive's plenary power to regulate admissions to the US, so I'll pile on.


Herewith the AP's description of Hawaii's "arguments" to block Trump's exercise of this power.


"Hawaii argued that the ban discriminates on the basis of nationality and would prevent Hawaii residents from receiving visits from relatives in the six mostly Muslim countries covered by the ban.

The state also says the ban would harm its tourism industry and the ability to recruit foreign students and workers."


No comment is really possible here - this is self-parody so crude that it boggles what's left of anyone's mind.


Just to pick the lowest-hanging fruit. "Discriminates on the basis of nationality". Nationality being the actual, sole currency of diplomatic interactions of all kinds, and consular and visa actions of all kinds. Embassies and the State Dept. itself being organized, unavoidably, along such lines. So the instantaneous reductio ad absurdum here is that the US cannot use the only organizing characteristics of foreign relations and especially consular matters to ..... conduct its foreign relations and consular matters.


All of which is besides the point, as the court has no jurisdiction, the court has no statutory or constitutional basis whatever for its interference, and the plaintiffs clearly have no standing.

[ ] Struggling
[X] On-going, flourishing


Tired of losing to lawlessness status:

"It is undisputed that the Executive Order does not facially discriminate for or against any particular religion, or for or against religion versus non-religion. There is no express reference, for instance, to any religion nor does the Executive Order -- unlike its predecessor -- contain any term or phrase that can be reasonably characterized as having a religious origin or connotation."

302 So the judge has to argue that Trump has a Bad Heart.

This is so bad, it has to get overturned. We may get a new three judge panel of the Ninth Circuit

This is why Trumps spokes holes should have chosen their words more wisely.

The Left have been advocating the approach seen here for years.

Basically, they declare that a decision based on animus is invalid.

However, they declare such decision to always be bad, even if made under neutral and legitimate reasons, because it will advance the previously noted animus, even if the measure doesn't do that.

They get their preferred outcome by simply declaring all alternatives to be invalid.

Similarly, many on the Left will argue that because religious people don't like abortion, any restriction on abortion is a violation of "separation of church and state" even if it is advocated by an atheist on non-religious grounds.

306 Ignoramus, every bit of every decision other than the one from MA, to date, is lawless nonsense. Courts don't get to decide to ignore the constitution and statutes. Yet, they do so all the time, and this accounts for most of the country's problems.


And no emergency appeal to SCOTUS, from the outset. Why? Because the collapse of integrity and the lawlessness of the courts has destroyed that court, too (translation: "we have to wait til we have Gorsuch" - because a ridiculous, histrionic, utterly indefensible usurpation of executive power - on national security, no less - may well *survive* review at SCOTUS).


How far into the "temporary" visa restrictions period are we, by this point? How many admissions into the US of people the intel community (and common sense) tell us cannot be properly screened have occurred?


The judiciary is a farce and a cancer on the country, and the administration has completely failed.

309 One practical answer is to ratchet up the vetting so that few visas get issued. This has probably already started.

What's already been thrown overboard is giving priority to persecuted religious minorities. My response is practical. No refugees. Period. Full stop.

314 It really doesn't matter what the law says or why the judges made the decision, it's just raw power at this point. They could say it's because they hate Ivanka Trump's perfume line and that would be enough.

So until Gorsuch gets seated, Trump is probably going to be blocked at every turn.

At the rate the Senate is going, it may deep into Trumps 2nd term before he's on the SC.

317 Rhomboid.

These are bad decisions, but with Gorscuch on board I expect that they'll get cleaned up.

Big issues are standing and nationwide application.

Standing can get tricky, but with the new order it's now quite attenuated.

Also expect a smack down over district judges issuing nationwide orders.

SCOTUS will see that the alternative is chaos.

324 The EO ruling highlights another thing pushed by the Left: Invalidating dissent while claiming "democracy" and "people power".

You can choose what ever position you like just as long as it is a valid (or not an invalid) position.

Further, if a person is declared to have animus towards some group, that person no longer has a valid say because any position assigned to that person is tainted with that animus.

Remember, the Left define "racism" as "power plus prejudice" and define "power" as something that White people have.

Thus, White people are not allowed to dissent in this Leftist "democracy" when it comes to questions of race (and everything is about race).

Similarly, this can be applied to straight people, men, "cis-normatives", the able-bodied, &c.

"Democracy", then becomes nothing more than shutting up and supporting pre-determined "correct" positions.

334 Just checked the opinion. Standing is based on people not being able to come to the University and some guys relative not being able to come visit. None have a visa. None have tried to get a visa with the waiver provision in the new Executive Order.

But the decision doesn't say that any of these folks get a visa, just that the EO is unenforceable. So if they're extreme vetted few and maybe none get in.

...and because they will manufacture that animus regardless of any real grounds, I'd say "choosing one's words carefully" in the futile hope of staving off the inevitable is a fools errand.

Permitting the left to make their decisions this way as long as they left us a little leeway if we minded our Ps and Qs, solidifying their power, was a horrible idea and could not carry on forever.

I frankly don't mind that "we" set out to pick a fight on this one.

344 Ignoramus, I find not a scintilla of comfort in all of your forecast developments (which may be spot-on).


Nothing will be "cleaned up" unless SCOTUS issues a clear and comprehensive ruling (and not 5-4) that the constitution and statute must be followed, and no courts are allowed to usurp executive power in national security or other areas, and there is no such thing as "standing" for blocking or altering policy decisions that are lawful.


Regardless, the fact the courts weren't repudiated from the start on this has done tremendous damage to the rule of law.

347 Ninth Circuit said that Trump had a Bad Heart and upheld Seattle's knocking down the Old Order.
Hawaii judge says the same thing about the New Order, ignoring the changes that were made, because Trump still has a Bad Heart.
So the Hawaii judge addresses, well, what must Trump do to not have a Bad Heart, so that he can do what Congress has already authorized him to do.

Answer is in footnote 17. Basically a public and abject apology by Trump to Muslims is required. And he must bring them a shrubbery
