A recent report published by MIT Technology Review revealed the Amazon-owned iRobot Roomba devices cleaning the floors of houses across the world are also capturing private images from within the homes.
Some images of people on the toilet and in other uncomfortable and private scenarios were shared online to private Facebook and Discord groups by Venezuelan software contractors in 2020.
The author of the MIT article, Eileen Guo, posted to Twitter about the findings, writing, “I investigated the origins of 15 video stills taken from inside homes by robot vacuums and shared to social media—some featuring humans in VERY candid positions, faces clearly visible—and wrote abt the supply chain of data used to train AI.”

It’s a thing to watch, but what should be made clear is that these people were staff who got the test version of the upcoming model of the vacuum cleaner and signed a waiver to share this data with the company. Of course the company did a poor job protecting the data.
LOL!
Why would anyone want to see someone taking a dump?
There are some REAL WEIRD FETISHES and some seriously strange people out there - ALARMINGLY so.
Watch it with the hate speech, please. Those are totally legit genders.
In addition to those precautions, I read that there was also a BIG warning label on the vacuum saying it could be recording video.
These breathless articles make it seem like every autonomous vacuum in the world is doing this.
Case in point...
You missed that Simpsons episode where they went to Japan...

Pardon. Je ne connais pas bien le langage perverti par le genre.
Je veux dire que, je sais à peine Français.

(Pardon me. I am not well versed in gender perverted language.
I mean, I barely even know French.)

/SS - Sarcasm Silliness
There are whole webpages of scat video. There are some sick people in the world.
We live very rural. They could use a drone to catch us here.
Where’s the luggage 🧳🧳🧳🧳???
I sure big brother is taking advantage of this. Like they are our in tapping into your internet connected devices to listen. Who needs bugs nowadays. People willingly put listening devices all over their homes.
.
A few years ago someone gave me one of those things as a gift. An Echo Dot.
I never plugged it in.
Never will.
Yep. Add all these to the list. People give up their privacy by using any such recording devices, such as Alexa et.Al., Roomba, your cell phones or any computer with a camera, cordless phones, smart TV, security cameras, sensors… etc., etc. There may be some settings you can adjust to block internal video/audio on cell phones and desktop, but others do not.
WE’RE GOING TO NEED TO START KILLING A LOT OF DEVIANTS
Does that Ruuumba have some AI so it just recognizes bare flesh?
Otherwise, you get a lot of video of table legs, books on the floor, a cat’s tail, close up of carpet fiber, etc.
Like when a game camera spends all day recording that moving tree branch on a windy day.
