I got lost investigating the battery claim of a week because this seemed quite low for such minimum specs. But then noticed it has a range of Wifi features? If you're selling a product focused on privacy, isn't it a bit weird that it has WiFi?

The whole story around needing to know the time sounds like feature creep. If I wanted a clock in my bathroom it's trivial to hone, and I'd only have to charge it once a year. If I want a device that detect my literal movements during movements, then I'd really not want it to be hooked up to my Wifi? Worse, be burning power (and increased BoM) to have a wifi-radio and screen to do so.

If this was _just_ a motion detecting device that played nice music it'd likely be an easier sell?

I believe the population that prefers digital privacy is only a small subset of the population that wants toilet privacy

I was really hoping that this toilet-privacy device required an always-on internet connection. I want to broadcast my shits to the entire interwebs

Just having wifi doesn't mean a privacy issue. Its what they do with your data and how it's safeguarded that matters.

A lot people place Alexas or Pods in the bathroom (which has microphones). Connecting Loodio to WiFi is optional.
