Simon Willison says:
- One of my weirder hobbies is trying to convince people that the idea that companies are listening to you through your phone’s microphone and serving you targeted ads is a conspiracy theory that isn’t true.
- https://simonwillison.net/2025/Jan/2/they-spy-on-you-but-not-like-that/
- Will there be good evidence by 2030 that tech companies spied on users through device microphones BEFORE 2025?
- This only includes major tech companies/platforms such as Apple, Google, Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram.
- Evidence I would accept for this would be a mainstream media source (including smaller but reputable tech publications) publishing a story on this topic.
