  1. This is one of the many reasons why I don't do what's "popular." I wait for a year or two before thinking about anything that's popular. Many things have problems or glitches that need to be fixed. Then you have spying going on in you home or in your hands. How do you think Saddam Hussein was captured? And finally Osama Bin Laden with tracking their phones. Burner phones are better and cheaper!

  2. The answer is Yes, they listen,! Everyone knows it but they love their social media too much to care
    Even if slimey Zuckerberg admitted it, there would be no change
    I could see people saying horrible things just because the phone is listening
