Amazon's creepy plan to put a camera and microphone in every
BEDROOM
with launch of its £120 Echo Spot 'smart alarm'
Amazon wants to put a camera and microphone in your bedroom with
the
UK launch of its latest Echo home device. The camera on the
£119.99
($129) Echo Spot, which doubles up as a 'smart alarm', will
probably
be facing directly at the user's bed. ...AND has second
generation
far-field technology with four microphones and enhanced noise
cancellation so it can hear users from across the room - even if
music
is playing.
However, there remain privacy concerns over using such a device
in
the
home. Amazon devices have previously activated when they're not
wanted
meaning this small device could turn into a potential spy.
Last month a hack by British security researcher Mark Barnes saw
2015
and 2016 versions of the Echo turned into a live microphone.
Fraudsters could then use this live audio feed to collect
sensitive
information from the device.
It is the latest edition to the tech giant's family of devices
and
is
as usual powered by virtual assistant Alexa.
Although the camera on the Echo Spot is primarily used to
facilitate
video calling, it could be hacked and used for malicious
purposes,
writes The Verge.
All sorts of techie product details snipped.
He's your **** Weinstein Smith. You welcomed him here and you
keep
crossposting to his home group even
**** off, impotent shriveled red pecker. The original post was to
this
group *only*, and the first cross-post to Ed's "home group" was by
*YOU*, you slimy no-fight squat-to-**** little cocksucker, two days
ago
at 6:40am EST.
Go kill yourself, you worthless ****ing do-nothing. You aren't
even
good enough to be chopped to bits and fed to hogs.
Back over the wall you go Trudy! You stupid **** spamming troll.
