So I've recently had two instances in which there is no other explanation other than my phone is listening to my conversations.
Just today, I'm on facebook, with my phone on my desk, and I watch a video about a man who bought a Rolex watch to use when flying and he's getting it appraised on Antique Roadshow. He has all of the original boxes and even the receipt which shows he paid $543 for it in 1973 and he states as much in the video.
They go on and the guy appraises the watch at $100k. That's a pretty good return on his money! That gets me to thinking, I wonder how much $543 in 1973 is today adjusted for inflation? So I open another tab and type in "$543" and google auto-fills "in 1973". How could it possibly know I was going to type in "1973"? That's such a random thing that there's no way of it possibly happening unless it was listening to the video through my phone. There's no microphone on the desktop and I'm logged into google on both my phone and the desktop so it's easy for them to communicate.
There was also no mention of either $543 or 1973 in either the post or the description of the video so it couldn't have gotten that number from text on the page. The only way would have been through the mentioning of both on the video.
Then the other instance happened a couple of months ago. I'm at work and a co-worker and I are talking about the flat earthers. About how crazy the stuff is they believe in (sorry if you're a flat earther) and everything else. We talk for a few minutes and then I said, "I wonder if they think the moon is flat?". Then we talk about that for a minute or two and I said, I'm going to google it.
I spin around in my chair to my desk, where my phone is also sitting, and I start typing into google and I get out "do flat" and google auto-fills "earthers think the moon is flat". How would it even be possible for it to guess that is what I was about to type unless it was listening to our conversation? There's no microphone on my desktop at work, again logged into google on both my phone and desktop, so my phone is the only way it could possibly know what we were talking about.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist but I'm 100% positive that your phone is listening to what you're saying and transmitting it to google and who knows where else. There is no other explanation on how these two things could have occurred otherwise.
So be careful what you say around your phone, which is virtually impossible because everyone always has their phone, because "they're" listening. It's crazy!
