Toys Are Sentient

Level 0 – Common Web
HOAX

This might have been intended to be referring to a Toy Story type of reality, but in a way this is very real. Sentient is defined as “able to percieve or feel things”. How valuable would this ability be to a company that sells toys to children? If the company is able to retrieve data from their toys that gives them every intimate detail of a childs mind. Most of you should be aware of the level of data collection companies like facebook and google do, thats why you see those ads about things you may have mentioned or thought of but never typed them in to a device. You know what the most popular toy on earth is right now? Video Game consoles. The data that is collected from players reaction to enemies on the screen, or other players, how they cusomized their character and every other tiny detail is logged and creates a profile. So in a way yes, Toys are very Sentient and likely more intelligent than their users. Also, this originated in a hoax thread on /x/ but as usual, truth is manifested from what you put into the universe.
