That's just unconscionability, which is a common legal concept.

You can solve this problem by making consumers being informed – by forcing manufacturers to provide clear information about the services which are being given, and any privacy risks. That's something I thoroughly support.

But I absolutely reject the idea of outright banning technologies. It's not even a slippery slope – it's a vertical cliff.
