Never scoop cat litter again! That's the claim this robot litter box makes, and honestly, that's some damn fine marketing. We love our cats. But who really enjoys dealing with the litter box. So, if you have $550—yes, it's not cheap to live the litter box scoop-free life—this WiFi-enabled, automatic, self-cleaning litter box could be the answer to your litter scooping prayers. Not only does it do all the work for you, you can also spy on your kitty while it poops! The litter box connects to an app that tells you "recent usage history" and "waste drawer levels." So you'll always know when and how much litter box business Fluffy has done. Whoo! Talk about peace of mind.
Que pourrait-il se passer en cas de problème ?
Here’s something: Whisker, maker of the Litter-Robot 3 Connect, wins our award for the longest privacy policy we reviewed. It goes on and on and on and on. But hey, it’s better than no privacy policy, so we’re not exactly complaining (we might be complaining a little).
So, what’s the verdict on the Litter-Robot 3 Connect? Well, the good news is, the company says they don’t sell your data. Good! They do say they engage in personalized advertising, which, hey, just about everyone does these days. That’s the reality of our digital ad economy. Part of the reason their privacy policy is so long is they list out all the advertising entities they work with, from Facebook, Google, Pinterest, Amazon, Microsoft, and lots more. We actually don’t mind that the company lays out everyone (and we mean everyone) they advertise with. Just know if you share data with this company, you’ll likely see ads in lots of places.
What’s the worst that could happen with your fancy robot litter box? Probably not too much, although anything with a WiFi connection could always be compromised and then compromise all the WiFi in your home. That’s not likely, but the potential is there. Here’s hoping no one ends up spying on you as you spy on your cat pooping.
