I thought ALL cell phones came with a vibrator setting. “Call me again!” “Call me again!”

You know, someone was actually foolish enough to try using a modified Sawz-All with that sort of “attachment”. Glued the sex toy right to a real reciprocating saw blade, which of course cut right through the soft, latex-free, hypo-allergenic rubber - and other things.

I don’t understand what they are complaining about. You have a smart phone app that connects to a remote device. That means you have a record on your device, the carrier and or the internet provider, record of a purchase, and they are complaining that the company that sold them the device was tracking the same stuff everything else is...not to mention that the data has never been breached?

Isn’t this a little bit like suing a bank because they have your bank account transaction history?
