    Lovense threatens legal action

    Against who? Themselves?

    To me it looks like Lovense outted themselves as being negligent and thus is liable for mishandling the whole situation from my view

      Against who? Themselves?

      Against people and media outlets who reported the issue or reported on the issue.

      Their handling of the situation is close to as bad as it gets. Starting with taking 14 months(!) to address a wide open security hole.

      * edit: security hole, not security home

      Guaranteed they didn’t actually fix the problems, just plastered over them. Threatening legal action is to prevent people looking under the hood.
