Barbie is sending your child’s voice data to cloud servers

Barbie has had her fair share of controversies but this may be the first time that the popular children’s toy has been accused of spying. Mattel’s new “Hello Barbie” doll is designed so that it sends recordings of what children say to her to the cloud where voice detection technology processes the data. While this opens the doors to some truly awesome features, many privacy activists jumped on the products the moment it was released.
