Oh my goodness! I feel a meltdown coming!
“Schumer: Your TV May Be Spying On You; Reveals Many New TVs Have Built-in Cameras”
“Researchers have been able to hack into TVs with ease, allowing them to turn on cameras and microphones, spying on families living rooms.”
ROFL...how did you know? Now I’ll be called a racist!

“Is your TV spying on YOU? It sounds like science fiction but many new TVs can watch you - telling advertisers your favourite shows or even filming you on the sofa. And there’s no off switch!”
“You are sitting in bed in your pyjamas, drinking a cup of cocoa. A loved one lies next to you, watching late-night television. Pillow talk is exchanged. An alarm clock is set. Eventually the lights are turned out.”
“Earlier, you sat on the living-room sofa eating supper, before loading the dishwasher and heading upstairs.”
“You have, in other words, just enjoyed a perfectly normal night, in a perfectly normal home. The curtains are drawn, the central heating turned up. Its cosy, relaxing and, above all, completely private. Or so you thought.”
“The truth turns out to be quite the opposite. For on the other side of the world, people you didnt know existed are keeping a beady eye on your every move.”
“These characters can see what clothes you have been wearing and what food youve eaten. They heard every word you said, and logged every TV show you watched. Some are criminals, others work for major corporations. And now they know your most intimate secrets.”

Have you ever heard the word teledildonics?
It all goes into the haystack.
Yep, FB itself isn’t the problem, but many people have made it SO easy to learn way more about their lives than most of us care to know, that it’s pretty silly to worry about whether the power company is monitoring how often they dry a load of clothes ;-)
My computer connects to the internet. Nothing else. I even have a dumb cell phone.
If you have all the latest gadgets that talk to each other then you can worry.
I don't.
nope they can zoom in on ya from above.
So it’s not to late to change my racist white bread for pumperknickel? Thanks, I feel better, and the sandwich looks great!
He is wrong, there is stuff in/on the old one that can break. No software. But springs, levers, and such can/will break.
Electric ones can break if they fall. They are either on low power wiring from the hvac or have a 9v battery powering them. The biggest points of failure are any kind of button you press, wearing that out to the point it doesn’t register you pressing it anymore. If on hvac wiring for power a power surge might damage it.
Oh? What’s keeping the drones away?
Now what’s for dinner? OH, I am so sorry I have to go to work....beware the kitchen spies. This news of NSA places of hiding lends a whole new aspect to cooking.
I got a few notices asking me to say where I lived but ignored them. I left that off for a reason and I do not post very much personal info. People know where I live so why broadcast it. I was on a sports forum and a member posted a young girl’s FB page including her pictures and certain messages. I went to FB, told her but I don’t know what she did. Sometimes I have to wonder about the people on those sites. Some act like kids. Maybe because some are teenagers.
Oh Gosh NSA employees can pick any channel for a reality show, huh? I’ll remember that.
