Police in the UK have arrested a 21-year-old man following a massive hack against Hong Kong-based toymaker VTech, which sells popular toys for very young children, including smartwatches and tablets.
The November breach of several company databases exposed information about roughly 5 million adults and more than 6 million children around the world, including names, genders and birthdates.
The incident calls to question the digital security of toys at a time when big corporations are increasingly marketing dolls and other devices that connect to the Internet and collect data about children.
