Even having three security cameras around the perimeter of your house can allow quite precise location and activity detection inside the house via their audio steams.

Those mics can be quite sensitive.

I don't have security cameras in my house but that's actually interesting to see how things most people have in their house can (and does?) used to spy on them.

Yes. But depending who is doing the work they can just see what Bluetooth devices are around each hour of the day too... It sucks that everything we have seems to be usable against us

Really? They can’t seem to pick up a conversation happening directly in front of them.
