CBers 6766 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Is your TV listening to you? Samsung admits its Smart TVs record and share audio in the home. http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-31296188 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cragjagged 44 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Oddly I was chatting with a friend a couple of days ago saying that it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if this was happening! Maybe the TV overheard me?! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianW 1052 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 That was one of the first features I disabled on my Samsung TV. It didn't work very well anyway - it would occasionally hear voices on the TV and then prompt for an action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chessdragon136 677 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 ITs a common practice and Samsungs guidance on this has actually been quite clear, just people don't seem to read anything nowadays. Siri, Cortana, all voice systems behave like this. If in doubt, turn it off - best computing advice in years (unless its a firewall ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
