well Samsung just went off the list, why the hell does everything have to be connected these days, I don't want a TV, fridge or toilet monitoring my every movement
Samsung has confirmed that its "smart TV" sets are listening to customers' every word, and the company is warning customers not to speak about personal information while near the TV sets.
The company revealed that the voice activation feature on its smart TVs will capture all nearby conversations. The TV sets can share the information, including sensitive data, with Samsung as well as third-party services.
The news comes after Shane Harris at The Daily Beast pointed out a troubling line in Samsung's privacy policy: "Please be aware that if your spoken words include personal or other sensitive information, that information will be among the data captured and transmitted to a third party."

Downright scary to think about... The more technology advances, the more I desire to be a Luddite.

what is really disturbing is how little the younger generation think that it is a concern

The younger generation/millennials have different perspectives about almost everything. Especially on money, debt, privacy. I know 3 of our kids just look at things like this as just being the way things are, that everyone else is in the same boat. Heard mentality. Scary.

I have my location services turned off, but sometimes I wish I didn't. I would love to be able to look back to see where I took pics.

I don't upload pics to facebook but is there a way to disable it on facebook but still have it enabled on your phone? Upload to flickr, make them private and you can still see the locations.
