A luxury toilet controlled by a smartphone app is vulnerable to attack, according to security experts... the Pin code for every model is hardwired to be four zeros (0000), meaning that it cannot be reset... An attacker could ... cause the unit to unexpectedly open/close the lid, activate bidet or air-dry functions, causing discomfort or distress to [the] user."

Did you seriously believe liberals were going to stop with turning off your refrigerator remotely?
And as an added twist, they even managed to elevate two poor guys at the same time (separate stalls).
Sadly, indeed tragically, white youts in the 9-13 age bracket learned how to hack even this contrivance in rural Illinois in the early 20th century. My late father, born in 1900, recounted such an incident. I seems a a boy he
knew at the time, who wasn’t too popular with his contemporaries, was taking his ease in such an accommodation when a couple of other urchins crept up behind while he as passing no.2., slid a paddle through a chink in the facility’s back, and squashed the no. 2 against the victim’s backside. I know, posting this at lunch time wasn’t in the best of taste.
Those Russkie toilets don’t look too bad ,, at least the back wall is close enough to the hole that you can lean against it when you squat.
More common than that though is to have what to us would be the bottom half of a standard American toilet with a bucket provided to flush with..
Everybody be careful, I have one of these and had some issues. I was sitting on the toilet doing my business when I decided to activate the toilet app with my cell phone. I had toilet paper in one hand and my phone in the other. I went to put my password (My password is poopoo, how clever is that?) in my cell phone but wait a minute, this hand has the toilet paper. This could only mean one thing, the cell phone is in my ass. Yes, some ass has my cell phone. I put the phone in a zip lock bag and took it to the Apple store and told them, “I don’t know what happened, it just stopped working”. If you can believe it, I now have to operate the toilet manually until I get my phone back, How stupid is that, what am I a cave man or something?
I don’t get these high tech toilets. Heated seat I understand. Does it do a wash like a bidet?
And blow dry your arse with a rose scented breeze?
There’s a joke about a guy using the women’s room in a very high-tech, luxury resort and playing with the buttons on the control panel.
The joke ends with him in the hospital.
