    Tapping Your Cell Phone

    I saw this video and was horrified that someone can activate and listen in on the microphone of a cellphone when it's not in use.

    If it's on the news that means this technology has been around for a while. Which freaks me out even more.

    ?

    I've heard that way back in the way back hackers used to talk about being able to turn on the mike built into a sound card on a computer and use it to eavesdrop. Though I suspect that wasn't ver practical.

    This tech has been around for awhile. The FBI has been known to use it too.
