ShyWriter Posted August 8, 2013 ID:712487 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Here's a little tidbit that John (noknojon) forwarded to me.. BBC NEWS TECHNOLOGY - 5 August 2013Luxury toilet users warned of hardware flawA luxury toilet controlled by a smartphone app is vulnerable to attack, according to security experts. Retailing for up to $5,686 (£3,821), the Satis toilet includes automatic flushing, bidet spray, music and fragrance release. The toilet uses bluetooth to receive instructions via the app, but the Pin code for every model is hardwired to be four zeros (0000), meaning that it cannot be reset. MORE DETAILS A phantom flusher may be a "Hijacker" - - - - or "Lowjacker" - - - Regards John - Note: (Or you may be getting a "Low Flow" - Shy) /SteveLow blow; low flow.. seemed funny to me..

CWB Posted August 9, 2013 ID:712821 Share Posted August 9, 2013 "well , this will certainly make chartered accountancy more interesting ..." with that hardwired pin code it would be hard to crap out on a hack .it makes a clandestine attack on the rear flanks a sure bidet . 5600 bucks for a toilet ?some people have too much time and money on their hands .
