I do, several of them including several tablets from ASUS, a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and a Samsung Galaxy IV phone.

I'm not worried at all, but then again I don't keep anything personal or private beyond a few family pictures on any of them along with whatever productivity apps I use and sync data between them.

Really not worried about this issue because of that. Anyone who wants to flip on my camera or microphone by all means have at it. They'll discover just how boring my life really is. Who knows, maybe they'll get bored to death?

I have an old Galaxy Tab 2 for Chromecast videos and for FR when I’m not on a PC.

I’m not too worried. I do nothing fancy or personal on it as it can barely do much right now being so old.

Already texted two article to my son. He just got a new Galaxy a week ago. I know that because I drove 300 miles round trip to deliver it to him.
