My friend Cayla, the devil doll

The reality again than fiction. And although this time there is no need to regret the injuries, nor is there a trace of charms and sadistic dolls that run around with knives once they have come to life, the truth is that My Friend Cayla is generating quite a stir and controversy, to the point that in Germany recommend the destruction of this interactive and internet connected doll that can be hacked relatively easily and spy on our children.

We couldn’t resist linking My Friend Cayla with Chuky, the devil doll.

My Friend Cayla is much more than an interactive talking doll. Through an Internet connection and Bluetooth, it is able to answer questions, “understand you” and even hold conversations with children through the voice recognition system integrated into its collar and a complementary app installed on the mobile.

Beneath her sweet appearance of golden hair and sky blue eyes hides a full potential spy system.

The privacy of the little ones

The first thing that My Friend Cayla does when it is activated is to ask a series of personal information: name of the child, his family, address …

All the alarms went off when the devil doll was hacked and they managed to use their microphones and internet connection to record / spy on every word in their environment within a radius of ten meters.

Everything would have stayed here if it weren’t for the strict privacy and communication protection laws that exist in Germany since the end of the Second World War (in Germany it is illegal to sell or possess an unauthorized surveillance system; violation of this law can lead to two years in prison for those who violate it).

As if it were a movie ending, the German federal government has directly recommended its total destruction.
