Why, oh why does this device have to be connected tot he public internet? That should be a big red flag. and the answer should not be "because we can".
There are a fair number of internet connected sex toys (or anti-sex toys?), and the answer is so they can be controlled over the internet.
I wonder if for some people, getting their dick ransomed by a stranger on the internet is part of the fetish.
Does the BDSM have a subset who are into chemical castration? I mean... if they'd do that, I have to guess there could be some.
It should have a feature that if someone locks it and cannot unlock, it will unlock after a long period of time, for example, 3 months, to make it safe to use.
If so the poor guy will be happy instead of sad to see hacker's information :)
These IoT sex toys are terrible due to their insecurity, but perhaps they can be an interesting way to play Capture-The-Flag games for those who are into it. Someone should design some games for them. For example, a crypto CTF game takes control and locks your chastity cage at the beginning until the server receives a response signed by RSA, to free yourself you must derive the private key by exploiting a padding oracle vulnerability in the RSA implementation or using an arbitrary code execution vulnerability in server's input handling code. Of course participating should be consensual with a safe word, and the difficulty should be reasonable within the participants skills.
Crap, now I am going to have to fire up a VPN and private browsing window to google how a chastity cage works.
There's no way to escape this contraption when it's locked?
Isn't that kind of the point?
Sure but you'd think there would be at least some safeguards, what if the battery dies? Or perhaps there's a weakness in the mechanism that can be exploited? Or perhaps just a bolt cutter?
Boltcutter, yes. Or a welding torch
I know nothing about this, how does it stay attached to you such that there is no way to remove it?
Well, don't ask me how I know this, but these things attach via a ring around your junk and stay on via the gap between the "tube" and "ring" being too small for your testes to squeeze through.

You /could/, obviously, just cut the damn thing off, but then you'd risk injuring yourself, and nobody wants to put a hacksaw near their dick.

I remember hearing about this a few months ago. Did it happen /again/?
I’m shocked people actually use these.
It’s a different kind of sex toy that will shock you, this one just locks.
Quick! Signal for the Lockpicking Lawyer!
Needed more penetration testing
