#Kohler unveils a #camera for your #toilet -TechCrunch
Home goods company Kohler recently unveiled a new device called the #Dekoda — a $599 camera that can be attached to your toilet bowl and take pictures of what’s inside.
Dekoda analyzes these images in order to provide updates on your gut #health and #hydration and to potentially detect blood. It also comes with a rechargeable battery, a USB connection, and a #fingerprint sensor to identify who’s using the toilet

Will Kohler pay me damages if there's a security breach? No*. Therefore, a #security breach is certain.
* because we don't have a comprehensive #privacy law in the U.S.
