      I don't think Facebook does this—it has so much on you already—but it's NUTS that we have microphones we don't control with us all the time.https://twitter.com/newsobserver/status/925683841880154112 …

      Number of people who continue to have reasonable suspicions is a sign of how broken things are in terms of trust. Hardware software, all.

      I stopped posting as much to Facebook because privacy settings changed so often that I felt on unsure ground. Common theme in my interviews.

          For microphones, though, we most def need hardware switches even if somehow we trusted big platforms etc. Should be under user control 100%.

          I’d settle for a software switch in the OS that I could trust and verify. Same for camera, tho that’s a more tractable problem with shutters

          Me, too. I’ll post family photos publicly here that I won’t share there.

          Yeah, weird, no. At least here, I know exactly what I'm getting into, what the visibility is. Facebook surprised me too many times.

          For example, found out using copy/paste/delete-identifier-txt didn’t work w/FB app ‘cause it can see your clipboard w/o pasting. App deleted
