If you really don't want Facebook listening to anything you say at any time, you can turn off the app's access to your microphone.
In iOS, go to the Settings panel, find Facebook, and slide off the "microphone" option.
On Android, go to "Privacy and Safety" in Settings, find the microphone section under the app permissions panel, and toggle off Facebook's access.
- madeofpalk 9y agoWell, the premise of these claims is that Facebook is bypassing system protections (which I highly doubt they're doing) to listen without notifying the user. If they're doing that then surely they can get around microphone being shut off for the app. Again, I would be extremely surprised if they've managed to do this without anyone finding out. iOS and Facebook as just too big of a target for this to stay with just them.
