They got nothing on me. :stylin:

Unless this was a trick to get us to sign up for voluntary spying.
Is it because you don't have a smart phone? :MJ:
My phone is very smart thank u berry much. It dials when i hit talk. :clap:
So, you, Tuushi, haven't done what the totality of human technological endeavour was actually striving for and asked a mobile phone 'Where's the nearest restaurant is?' :lol:

I find that very disappointing :geek:

Yes, I found out about this while I was playing around with my Gmail settings last week. I clicked on my location history and the sons of bitches had my every move on the map, wallahi I was shocked. I erased it all on the spot and disabled the function.

God forbid, if some of the people I know ever stumbled on a travel log of mine and asked questions...I would instantly google the local charter of rights for whatever passes as a plea against self-incrimination :lol:
You come home in a good mood and suddenly you are greeted with "I know what you did last night at x hotel". Dang it! "who snitched"?. Dog house here I come.
Rattled the %^$# out of me :whew:

Less*

Apparently the FB chat app turns the cam and mic on while idle. I'm assuming if you are on a watch list for any reason, they who you're sitting with as well. Voice recognition is nothing new either. Retina scanners are probably in our screen regardless of whether or not we use the feature.

Big brother indeed. I feel like we will be in a dystopian NWO environment in our lifetime.

A. The Facebook asks your permission to access your cam and mic.
B. Facebook =/= The Government. Just because Facebook can see you're watching Game of Thrones doesn't mean the Gubbermint can.
Voice recognition is nothing new either
So?
Retina scanners are probably in our screen regardless of whether or not we use the feature.
Why is it probable? What evidence do you have to support this assertion? If they can happily use fingerprint and facial recognition software why are retina scans covered up

A dystopian NWO environment where 'Big Brother' asks for permission to access your microphone and allows you to turn it off. Right.


it's just a bit paranoia :lol:

Definitely, However while FB is not the gov, if the government asks for this information, they must give it, especially if you are suspected of illegal activity. Siri is not the only one who got someone in hot water. They ask your permission, but you can't use the ap without acceptance. Don't use the app you might say? For some people it's the only way to reach family, since phone calls can be very expensive.
It''s not probable, I am sure all of that information is being stored somewhere. You want to be nitpicky today dontchya...face, voice, eye scan, lol Call me paranoid, I don't care, but I am sure all of this is stored and will be used for tracking purposes.
You sound very silly... If its possible to hack into your microphone and listen to what's going on, what makes you think they won't already do it?

America is known for trespassing any and all privacy rights, what's to stop anyone else from the same thing? loll

Baasto, gurl u cray.

Yeees, that's what's known as 'getting a warrant'...
Siri is not the only one who got someone in hot water.
He clearly asked siri what to do :?
They ask your permission, but you can't use the ap without acceptance.
Yes, that's because the app won't work otherwise. :x , There's no point installing a communication app that can't use your mic and camera.
Don't use the app you might say? For some people it's the only way to reach family, since phone calls can be very expensive.
Bullshit. Please provide evidence of someone who is forced to use Facebook because phones charges are prohibitive..There are other million means
It''s not probable, I am sure all of that information is being stored somewhere.
Maybe they might store something you intentionally accessed/used...but, Provide evidence that all of that information is being stored. And once you've provided that evidence, provide evidence that it's being misused.
You want to be nitpicky today dontchya...face, voice, eye scan, lol
:lol: Well, This site might be called SOMALInet ( losts of bs) but no to 'Credulous Acceptance'. Assertions have to be supported. Otherwise we they get laughed and pointed at.

What you're sure of doesn't necessarily equal fact. Evidence is required.
You sound very silly... If its possible to hack into your microphone and listen to what's going on, what makes you think they won't already do it?
Second Ad Hominem noted.

Burden of proof. You have to provide evidence for your claims. Just because it's possible doesn't mean they have.
America is known for trespassing any and all privacy rights, what's to stop anyone else from the same thing?
Bullshit. While the American government has breached some privacy rights that doesn't mean they breach all privacy rights.
Again, evidence, rather than speculation and leaping to conclusions is required.

your second post shows less paranoia :lol: :up:

Bullshit yourself. I am 100% sure privacy is an illusion and no authority who can get away with breaching it, wont.

Also, just because you may be able to afford to call any location on earth for as long as you need to (And I am quite sure you cannot), doesn't mean others have that luxury.

Go away Sulfur lol You're just trolling now. If you have that much trust in privacy laws and are sure your liberty remains sacred, by all means. But thank you for your points. While they haven't eased any of my concerns, I will end here.

Ah, I see. So when challenged to present evidence for your assertions, your response is simply to re-erect the assertion or call someone a troll?

More speculation and leaping to conclusions :up:



Ps: I better put a piece of paper on my laptop camera, incase its turns on automatically

I obviously don't have evidence, that what paranoia is, speculation with many points leading one to believe that it is possible. I didn't say it IS happening or that I am being spied on right now (although I have no proof of yes or no).

You are fine to believe it does not happen (until proven otherwise) and I am free to believe it is possible (with evidence such as these links where I did not know they were storing information of where people may have been months ago). So while you want to continue to exercise debating, I have no interest, as neither of us have proof of what we are saying. The absence of proof in a world where hacking is done more and more, and privacy rights are being questioned is not definitive, but since you're so smart, you should know that :lol:

I wish I knew enough about computers to hack into yours right now just to show you what's possible. But because I can't, it's not possible right?
