"Facebook wants to hide secret messages in TV adverts so it can spy on your watching habits a new patent application reveals. This image from the application details how Facebook would use your television (top) to send messages to applications on your phone (bottom)
According to the patent, spotted by Metro, the system would use 'a non-human hearable digital sound' to activate your phone's microphone.
This noise, which could be a sound so high-pitched that humans cannot hear it, would contain a 'machine recognisable' set of Morse code-style beeps.
Once your phone hears the trigger, it would begin to record 'ambient noise' in your home, such as the sound of your air conditioning unit, plumbing noises from your pipes and even your movements from one room to another.
Your phone would even listen in on 'distant human speech' and 'creaks from thermal contraction', according to the patent."
IT'S NOT THE GOVERNMENT WE HAVE TO FEAR, IT'S THE GODDAMN CORPORATIONS.
How are they fascist? I swear to God you conservative cucks need to get off of this dumbass mindset that if "you call them what they call you hopefully they'll see themselves as the bad guys and join us" mentality. Holyshit call them what they are, a bunch of commies.
The government and the corporations are the same thing in this context.
t. not cucked to an ideology

checked, but Facebook is a Pentagon DOD - DARPA - Information Awareness Office government project sorry mate, It started right after DARPA's Information Awareness project ended in 2004, Facebook is nothing but a DARPA/CIA front and Zuckerberg is the front man, although you are correct governments work through corporations secretly to decieve the public, when its official it's called corporatism
I'm gonna invent a box that you out your phone into that's sound proof and can't spy in you. Maybe the box would have a light on it so you know when it rings.

I wonder why the media isn't trying to limit the telescreens that would make Orwell blush?
I’m not sure how this would work though. For one you would need their software on your phone. Second, your tv might not be able to make such high pitched sounds. The speaker and amp probably aren’t designed for it, and audio compression specifically throws away sounds that humans can’t hear since it’s a waste of data.

I'm starting to see a lot of young people who only upload one or two pictures and don't click Likes on anything.
True. EE here, the filters should take care of any sounds such as that.

So why even patent it, apparently my Mrs said Facebook had a TV advert on last night claiming they were returning to their roots of being a platform to connect people. I scroll through her FB feed for a laugh or I should say I used to now it's just adverts after adverts no people having breakdowns or gobbing off about their shifty lives just adverts and baby pictures.

Why can't companies just do one thing? Facebook used to be a good place to share pictures with friends, now they want to be a news site, video hosting site, etc. etc.
