How about a microphone in our houses and cars?
Why stop there, just go straight to video.
Here's my hate speech:
F U B O!
If you have an smartphone, pad, or computer...they already can turn them on and watch or listen to you.
Smart Phones!!
Got a cell phone? How about a laptop with a webcam built in? Do your kids have one of the new Xboxen? If you have any of those, then your home and car are already bugged. It's just a matter of a couple mouse clicks to turn them on remotely. That is unless you know how to tame those devices apart and disable the offending hardware at the layer 1 level. Sure, the workplace might not have much use for us old solder jockies now that it's cheaper to replace than repair electronics, but we still have our uses.
They already have them - smartphones!
