One very cool thing would be a urinal that does internal health checks on your piss and allows you to access that on your phone. But yeah bluetooth is a shit choice for that too.
My main concern every time these health-sensing toilets come up (it’s a topic on everyone’s mind, ya know?) is how long until they start associating waste with the people it comes from, and then forwarding that info on to entities like insurance companies? I’d be too paranoid to use these in public bathrooms, and if I had one at home I’d be doing the usual IoT best practices - keep it on it’s own network with no internet access.
