I can turn my phone off or leave it at home...
But do you do that?
That's not the point. The point is we shouldn't have to.
Mics can collect voiceprints. It's like the police dusting for your fungerprints wherever you go. Which, if they had a warrant and cause, fair enough, but everyone 24/7? Seems like a privacy invasion to me.
Yeah and where are you more likely to talk about sensitive information, at home or outside next to a busy street?
Er, outside in a busy street. Isn't that tradecraft 101?
But, the police have other ways these days
