Double yikes. That almost by definition means cloud and data storage in god knows where. Somebody really wants that sweet sweet profitable metadata.

So... You pay money to know if you have diarrhea, or not, and if it's explosive diarrhea, or not? You son of a bitch, I'm in! 😂
Why not..letsgo! I am awaiting the "leak" videos
The asterisk of the day in TikTok.
I can’t believe that was 10 years ago. It is spot on.
I can kind of see this as a positive, where tracking health is useful...
But I'd have to let go of literally every corporation who has tried to be altruistic and then burned me later. 150 a year (let's be real too, per user probably), is too much for a monitoring service like this. Not to mention, you notice blood in your stools. Unless you just ignore weird feelings and just never turn around when flushing you're gonna notice. You don't need a service for that, just go to the doc immediately.
Yeah, it’s actually really valuable data for your own personal use in aggregate. Obviously you would notice a dramatic change one day. But you wouldn’t notice a slow trending change. Having the data to see that could help you identify a condition early before you have symptoms.
Collecting the data has a lot of value. Paying a subscription service for the rest of your life to not lose the data kind of ruins the deal.
Yeah that seems like the perfect sort of thing to give away as a free benefit to people, but then charge big healthcare for the overall datasets to do analysis on. Fully anonymized of course. If I, someone who actually cared about privacy, was going to do it that'd be how.
Someone use a Smartwatch? Their all your data go to Apple, Google, Amazon and also maybe even to your Doctor. We like to surround us with Spyware to make big corporations great again.
If i feel me bad or have blood in my shit, I go to the Doctor, no need of an app which say it.
For hardcore smarthome fans. At least no ads.
No ads…yet.

Does Kohler run truck-stop bathrooms or were they just an inspiration?
Maybe in the future, business is business.
Are you kidding me?! Fixture companies are actively engaging in activity that would get an average person put on a list now.
Your internal waste becomes the property of these companies for further analysis

End to end really depends on which end to which end is being connected.
Butt seriously I WANT THIS, I want poop analysis, I want fecal spectrometry. I do not want it to be a god damn enshitifued from the drop app and crapware has to have big "We aren't recording you TRUST US" stuck to it.
