At least as far back as 2011 or so, I noticed that Chrome was causing my computer to behave differently when something was said. My setup at the time: a mac pro with 3 30" cinema displays. The first time I noticed it I was several feet away from the computer talking on the phone -- actually about something the NSA probably would have had a keen interest in (the NDAA allowing for indefinite detention was about to be passed and I had just booked a flight to Stockholm) -- when my screens flashed and redrew slowly enough to be noticeable. It happened more than once during that phone call. And after I quit Chrome it didn't happen again. Even during the phone call. Everybody I mentioned it to seemed to think I was batshit insane. So I stopped mentioning it years ago. And now that I see this, I'm willing to bet that there's more: a screen-grab capability that never accounted for grabbing 12,288,000 pixels at once. The Ministry of Privacy (Minipriv) it seems, has had telescreens in our homes for years.
