I'm not paranoid but, how smart are smartphones?

Just say "ok Google" on your smartphone and 'ding'. Ask any question you like.

Makes me wonder if the microphones and cameras on our smartphones are listening and watching us?

Thoughts...

The microphones are obviously always listening. If they weren't, when you said OK Google or siri they wouldn't know you've said it

I was talking about golf to a friend, I never play and have never searched for anything to do with golf. Ten minutes later golf clubs for sale started popping up in ads on my phone !

There is a reason mobile telephones are not allowed in SCIF's.

I checked out the Health app on my iPhone. For the past few years it recorded every step I made and every floor I climbed, all time-stamped. It also knew exactly where I've been, when I was there and for how long.

The fucker knows me better than me.

Last month my mate mentioned a product to me whilst my phone was in the other room out of earshot but his phone was in his pocket. An hour later this product popped up on my Facebook timeline.

It was Heineken 0% alcohol as well so whoever is behind this hasn’t got a fucking clue about targeting their product!

I get lots of notifications on my phone asking me how was my visit to x, or y, or z. How does it know? Is Google Maps tracking me?

George Orwell was right.

x, or y, or z is a weird name for a strip joint.

Not as weird as some of the stri, er, "performers". Remember the bar scene in Mos Eisley in the original Star Wars scene? Well; that should give you a fairly good idea.
