I'll be putting out our blog post about this first thing tomorrow (we had it ready to go for next week, but I think now's a good time to add some fuel to the fire). Essentially the toy uses Bluetooth LE very insecurely and it has a speaker and a microphone. Guess what happens next?

Edit: Demo of the CloudPets functionality using Web Bluetooth https://github.com/pdjstone/cloudpets-web-bluetooth/
