Interesting. I han't thought about this aspect, where the toaster is capable to do more human activities to harass the person. This is actually a problem if there isn't a way to stop it wholesale. And there isn't and probably won't be. For a while if it ever changes. If this thing grows in occurrence, it might force people into private communities and systems to escape. That particular effect being arguably positive.
