Say there was an article saying there was a CIA plot to put listening devices into every home in America - they were (according to the conspiracy theorists) sneaking in at night and planting them.
Say that I pointed out that the CIA can listen in on any phone in your house, even when it is “off”. Any receiver can be remotely activated such that they can listen in almost anywhere they want anytime they want.
Would me pointing this out make you think I was FOR the CIA listening in on every American home?
Do you think me knowing of this possibility of activating a phone receiver would make me request that the CIA sneak into my home and plant listening devices because I don't think it is an issue?
Or would you conclude that I don't think the conspiracy is plausible or even necessary - because the CIA can already listen in on just about any conversation taking place anywhere within hearing distance of a phone?
You’re one of the biggest supporters of nanny-state control I’ve seen on FR, all in the name of science and technology, of course.
Your position on this topic is no surprise.
So go ahead, take the chip and let us know how it works out for you. and don’t forget the BBQ sauce. You’re going to need it.
