some people should not be on the internet...

If you're using an internet-connected vibrator equipped with a camera that allows you to stream your "pleasure" right to the internet, your intended viewers might not be the only ones watching.
Hackers from the UK-based security firm Pen Test Partners have found that it's trivially easy to hack into a Svakom Siime Eye, a $249 Internet of Things dildo that has a small camera on its tip, allowing users to stream a video to anyone of their choosing over the internet.
However, if you're in Wi-Fi range of the dildo and can guess the password, which by default is "88888888," you can watch the video stream.
With a bit more hacking, you can take control of the firmware and then connect to it remotely as well.
"When somebody is using it, someone else could be seeing the video stream," said Ken Munro, the founder of Pen Test Partners.
What's worse, "you'd never know about it," said the researcher who investigated the security of the device, who asked to be referred to only as Beau du Jour.
