Interesting info:
Hubby sat next to a guy on the bus that has a security company, they got to talking and he found out that:

1-Unless you turn off your router, even though you turn off your computer, you can still be listened in on.

2-Always cover the camera lens on your computer, it’s easy to capture pictures within your home and of yourself by someone that has found a way into your computer. That also goes for your TV if it has a lens on it. Both even if turned off.

3-If you have a phone that you cannot take the battery out of, even if you turn it off it can still spy on you because there is built in apps that offer that option.

If he remembers anything else I’ll post.

I don't know of any cell today that one can take the battery out. That's why I was mad when they went to not being able to. I've always covered my len on my computer. IT took me three days to get out of Facebook messenger...I doubt I'm really out today. And it most often the ad that pops up on my yahoo mail inbox on my cell..it wants you to make a mistake and click on the ad..to worm its way in.

Nursery plug-in monitors are bad too. When we got our son I bought them for his room and put the other in our family room quite a distance away. One day while my son was sleeping ALL of a sudden I hear a woman say.....So you decided to wake up! ...and more talking....it really frightened me. I went to my sons room and he was sleeping. When I returned to the family room it dawn on me I was listening to a neighbor talk to her young child. The monitor in my sons room had fallen out of the plug.
