WestyNottm Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Apparently your Samsung TV captures and transmits any speech it hears from it's built-in microphone. http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-31296188 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenh Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 That is dreadful, if it is true. But if it is, then who does it transmit my conversations to? Oh, my TV is Panasonic, but then it might apply to those as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Colonial Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 That's nothing. As you've signed up to be a club member, we can read your minds every time you log on. Frankly, it's scary and a bit disgusting. It's also 100% predictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrie Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Its like all of this snooping, its worse than looking for a needle in a haystack. They really don't have enough people to listen in to everybody's TV, because they're already listening in to everybody's computer, so the terrorists, drug dealers and bankers are winning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welly Jen Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Terrorists don't make any money and blow themselves up. Not a good career path. Drug dealers make lots of money and only go to jail if they aren't very bright. Sounding better. Bankers make lots of money and don't go to jail whatever they do. I think we have a winner!
