And they talk in real life to their kinds and not through a toy.

I can see a novelty use that would quickly die off. If you want to talk to your kids via a teddy bear instead of phone or Skype, then that is up to them. The Demo for the toy shows distant relatives using the toy to talk their kids/grand-kids.

But the purpose of the device has nothing to do with the security of the device.
