I don't think it would be that easy. If this is done "the right way", then facebook processes audio locally and only uploads keywords every once in a while. The traffic would be indistinguishable from normal https traffic between your phone and their servers.
- edf13 9y agoAlso - Facebook is likely doing SSL Pining so it isn't easy to unpack their SSL traffic either... Also - The Facebook App itself is heavily obfuscated making the task of rooting through the source code very difficult to try and discover what is going on... Not an easy task at all... (Although I doubt they are actually recording sound)

Don't know the exact data volume usage, but it's also significantly higher. Decrypting the SSL traffic is a bit too hard. That's why every privacy concerned citizen uses chrome with the mbasic.facebook.com url.
