    If you were creeped out by the thought of a sex toy creator collecting data about your usage habits, you're not alone. An Illinois woman has filed a class action lawsuit against the We-Vibe 4 Plus' creator, Standard Innovation, for allegedly violating laws covering everything from fraud through to eavesdropping and wiretaps. She had used the connected, couple-oriented vibrator "several times" before she learned that it was transmitting activity data like the intensity, mode and time of use. The company shows a "wholesale disregard" for privacy rights, the anonymous woman claims.
