Wikileaks previously released documents alleging that the government and its spy agencies had the tools to hack into smart devices and essentially turn your smart TV into a listening device.

All "smart" devices are made for one purpose and that's to spy and invade your privacy. Some TVs will even have a disclaimer stating that it's recording you by. And smart phones are a whole new story with apple controling 10% and google more than 85% of the market.

When you have an androind you are giving everything about yourself in their hands as they got your email, history, contact, phones, camera, mic. Everything you can imagine is being recorded and sold for a wide range of purposes.

Great post I was actually thinking about writing about privacy for my #thingsthatmatter series.
