MY SECRET POLICE FRIEND CAYLA: These talking toys can tell a defense contractor everything your kid says.

The problem with these toys, the complaint alleges, is that their terms of service allow them to record everything they hear and then send that information back to Nuance Communications, a voice recognition software company that supplies the underlying technology behind the toys, but that also does work as a defense contractor.

In particular, the groups are crying foul over the fact both toys are covered by Nuance’s general privacy policy, which states that they “may use the information that we collect for our internal purposes to develop, tune, enhance, and improve our products and services, and for advertising and marketing.”

On the plus side, Nuance Communications is probably less likely to consider you to be a terrorist than Obama’s Homeland Security Department might.
