Guise I found this digg worthy post in the comments on IPOT video from theh 9th about Hanx and other pedo shit.
The person talks a bout a toy that seems really suspicious, maybe track the maker and any current connections?
May be child tracking/GPS? What today?
Maybew nothing, but many things we dig on are surprising.

After listening I remembered a few toys that came out when my kids were young.
Tamagotchi - little electronic/digital "pets" that kids carried around on key chains. They had to be taken care of or they'd "die". That meant it always had to be on and accessed regularly. It also had a feature that was a "locator" - it could find other Tomagotchis in a fairly close proximity so the "pets" could be brought together for "play dates"…
The other - Nintendo DS. A small personal gaming device that also had a location feature. It would automatically ping other devices that were close by - the devices exchanged information and allowed both text chat and adding players to a game.
Both products are a pay doe file's dream. A divining rod to children. They could locate kids via these devices. I wonder how many missing kids may have had these toys?
Just to add a note - at one time house burglars used to steal garage door opener hand sets. They'd drive through neighborhoods clicking them to see if a garage door opened (at one time there weren't personal key codes - they were preprogrammed so every opener program may open 100 doors).
Now imagine a child trafficker driving through neighborhoods pinging toys that located other toys being used by kids?
When I realized my kids toys were "connecting" to other toys I got rid of them. It freaked me out. My kids weren't happy but their safety was more important than a toy.
They create things that we give to our kids - things that make our kids more vulnerable.
My kids are adults now. Not having a DS or a Tomagotchi didn't have a negative impact on their lives. They've probably forgotten about them.
