"Better turn your cell phone off or leave it at home then."

I thought I'd read that 'they' cab still access your phone even when it's off.

Put it in a faraday cage like box?

“Put it in a faraday cage like box? “

I’ve read reports that powered-down smart phones can still be accessed remotely and their microphones and cameras can be activated without this being detectable.

There are a number of shielding pockets and cases on the market, unfortunately we don’t have any way to test them unless we have a buddy in the NSA.

Microwaves make really good faraday cages.
