    If you think you have privacy in public spaces, I got some news for you. People could be and are recording you all the time. Not even counting CCTV and infrastructure recording you.

    In a mall? You most likely already have two or three cameras pointing at you at all time. In a street? There’s a few at every street corner.

      Mall CCTV isn’t going on Tiktok for the lulz. People don’t care much about privacy from the state or police, people absolutely care about being picked on by random people.

        But people who would do this already do with their phones. I don’t think this will make much of a difference.

      Oh, you’re gonna love this, then… 🤪🥲 Extracting (via telescope) from target device LEDs: any/all nearby audio, up to 35m away? That’s nothing.
