Any device that needs to be off because it can't be trusted with your conversations should not exist in the first place.

@hiramfromthechi The phone you used to make this post, does the same thing. So should we be leaving our phones at home?
@themeccles not all surveillance is created equal.

@hiramfromthechi Not sure I agree. Phones can do a lot more than we give them credit for. I Googled something on my work laptop, and later in the day, I saw ads on FB on my phone for the very thing I had Goigled earlier that day, from my work laptop. I think in this case, it’s all created equal.

My phone has also picked up on my conversations even when I’m not using it. All of these tech gadgets are set up that way.
