Got a link to being able to do voice recognition from gyros in phones? I could believe it for the actual bare MEMS sensor with custom firmware, but phone report rate is usually only 100hz, and the device filters are tuned for that.

Interesting! A bit better than I expected, but not much. This is their test setup with 75 dB volume and the results. That isn’t going to be picking up spoken words from your pocket.pic.twitter.com/xJBrBgiErw

I promise you none of this is happening to serve ads today, almost certainly a coincidence at present

I can’t promise it will never happen, but right now no small company could and if any major company did it they would have to say so very loudly. It honestly wouldn’t be as valuable as people seem to think.

To be clear this wasn’t ever done in the past by FB either?

Thanks for your transparency on this. The gyro speculation aside, there is one question at the core of all this. Does Facebook ever drive ads using microphone data captured on smartphones by either Facebook or third parties, other than in direct response to a voice search?

That’s super clear, thanks. What mechanisms are in place to prevent unethical third parties from gathering smartphone voice data surreptitiously and using it to generate a Facebook audience for advertisers to target?
