I’m not sure I understand the issue.  There are three factors in play. One is hackers with an interest and ability to hijack random sex toys. Two, a ready market for remote controlled sex toys with an expanded repertoire of vibrations.  Three the ability to determine if the hack was successful. On or off wouldn’t do it. A switched on device nestled in the box in the bedside table, should not count.

What’s in it for hackers? I understand bragging rights, own a few myself, but hijacking somebody’s dildo by remote control? How does one work that into a conversation? What is the measure of success? According to the Smart meter, electrical usage went up by 7.5-kilowatts. Hackers-can-detect-your-butt-plug-from-outside-your-house-and-turn-it-on-6971070

Reminds me of an EMS call answered by Austin EMS in the late 70’s. The paramedics aided a man with a dildo lodged in his butt. The paramedics, amid a great deal of snickering and tittering called in their report. The Doctor replied in a tired voice, “10-4 what’s he want us to do; take it out or change the batteries.”

Hacking a dildo maybe funny. It could be a harbinger of things to come. Hackers take over sex dolls and cause them to murder their owners in their sleep.
