Planetluvver Tech: Phones snooping on audio (38) RE: Tech: Phones snooping on audio 22 Jun 21


Jack, is it possible that you had looked up directions to the dentist using a phone app? But that does not explain the Poulenc sextet.

A weird social media thing happened to me recently, though it did not involve audio.

I attended a song circle on my PC. Often I will copy items from the Zoom chat window and save them, either by sending an email to myself, or creating a Wordpad document. Later in the day, Facebook made a friend recommendation of one of the attendees. I might have copied and pasted his name as part of a block of text, but I had not looked for him on Facebook.

If he had made a friend request, that would be one thing, and I would not have an issue with it. No, this was a suggestion from Facebook of someone I have only known from Zoom.

I just realized, if I sent myself an email, I would have pasted the information into a Gmail tab in Google Chrome Facebook would have been open in another Chrome browser tab. But someone told me that Facebook and Google are competitors and are not good playmates.
