But if a hacker takes control of this connected object, users can find themselves in serious embarrassment. According to a security researcher, the hacker said to one of his victims: “your cock is mine now” (“your penis is mine now”).
Another victim told the site Vice that the hacker demanded a ransom of 0.02 Bitcoin, or about $ 750. But he was lucky because he was not carrying the device with him when the hacker locked down.
The problem with this device was detected last October by security researchers. They have discovered many loopholes that can be exploited to take control of this chastity belt 2.0.
