Speaker:
Hi, I'm Bill Sikkens, host of User
Friendly 2.0 Saturdays
2
:
here on the answer
with this week's Tech Wednesday.
3
:
We talk about it
and there's even a song about it.
4
:
Is somebody Watching you?
5
:
And this is something in this day and age
where personal security has changed
6
:
quite a bit
with the onset of the internet,
7
:
where we are now, that this may be
something that will surprise you,
8
:
where you don't have privacy
and before you once did.
9
:
Smart speakers have been accused
of collecting information.
10
:
While that's possible,
there's another device in your house
11
:
that really takes the cake on that,
and that could be your smart television.
12
:
In fact, in the state of Texas,
a lawsuit has been filed
13
:
against several smart TV manufacturers
14
:
because they're being accused
of taking people's private information.
15
:
In other words,
what you watch and that type of a thing
16
:
sitting in the back to themselves
or selling it and not disclosing this
17
:
to the general public or their buyers
in a way that is meaningful.
18
:
This week on User Friendly 2.0,
we're going to talk about this
19
:
and look at what devices
might be spying on you.
