Why did you think Facebook wouldn't do that? In their view, any content you provide to their site becomes their property. Why wouldn't that include conversations. Considering the fact that everything is unencrypted once it reaches Facebook, it's a mistake to assume good faith on the part of a company that makes its living trying to make you spend more of your life on their website.
- pookieinc 10y agoAny content I provide to their site becomes their property is something I understand. However using my mic without specifically asking permission is something else. Yes, I do have their app, but even then, their app on my iPhone does not make my iPhone their property. In all honesty, I actually thought that this was something that phones would prohibit (I use an iPhone), but I was definitely mistaken and surprised by it. Having said all this, it was actually in the news[1] yesterday that Facebook will soon be providing end to end encryption, though I doubt it'll apply to the listening in on people's conversations chatting.
