‘Too inconvenient’: Trump goes rogue on phone security

• weinzierl 8y ago
  > Trump’s call-capable cellphone has a camera and microphone, unlike the White House-issued cellphones used by Obama. Keeping those components creates a risk that hackers could use them to access the phone and monitor the president’s movements. So Obama's call-capble cellphone didn't have a microphone because they were afraid hackers could use it to track his movements. Does anyone proof read these articles?

    Perhaps an algorithm could track his daily movement solely within the White House by analyzing a combination of inaudible sound wave reflection/refractions [0] and still images for context.

      The whole paragraph is just confused. A call-capable phone without a microphone?
