You would be surprised how good the A lady is I think. Its only though by

they have to deal with the awful quality of the telephone and its network.
I'm surprised from a mobile it can understand anything at all!


As I say, there is a button on the unit to deactivate it in hardware, or the
paranoid can simply pull the power plug out if they want to engage in
private chatting. If you have a fobile Mone then you stand a better chance
of being listened to as googles Android system is not that hard to fiddle
with when its connected to wifi.
