​

Twitter is boiling over with hilarity after Kellyanne Conway made a comment about microwaves that turn into cameras.

​

What I can say is there are many ways to surveil each other now, unfortunately. There was an article this week that talked about how you can surveil someone through their phones, through their certainly through their television sets, any number of different ways, and microwaves that turn into cameras, etc., so we know that that is just a fact of modern life.

The "surveillance" of people by their phones and tv's is to follow their consumption patterns so that they can target ads at you. Facebook does it too. I spent a couple of weeks last year posting humorous definitions of words, and the sidebar went insane trying to keep up. I consider it my civic duty to post whacky stuff now.But then there is that new doll that can use wireless app to "converse" more intelligently with your child -- and it can be hacked and used to

New Wi-Fi Barbie doll can be hacked so strangers can listen in to your kids

​

A new Barbie which is set to pop up in many stockings this Christmas could put your child at risk of being monitored BY HACKERS.

​

Hello Barbie is the Mattel company's new , much-vaunted smartdoll, boasting internet connection which allows it to listened and talk back to kids.

​

But it's been revealed that certain issues with the doll's mobile app and cloud storage mean that hackers may be able to eavesdrop.

​

The news comes from a report by Bluebox Security and independent security researcher Andrew Hay, according to the Washington Post .

​

The issues were reportedly raised with ToyTalk - the company behind Hello Barbie's vocal skills - in November and they have been working to solve them.

Police admit they are hacking people's phones

​

People now have to worry about being hacked by criminals and by the police.

​

After days of questioning, the Tacoma Police Department admitted that the force is using a cell site simulator, also known as a "Stingray," to combat crime.

​

This Stingray is a piece of hardware made by the Harris Corporation. It tricks phones into connecting to it, like a cell phone tower, but then tracks all of the calls, text messages and data use of cell phones in a half-mile radius. And the public wouldn't know if their phones were one of the devices hacked in such a way.

​

... They also said they get a warrant from a judge each time the Stingray is used. But the Superior Court presiding judge said that the applications for such warrants never indicated a Stingray was being used to get data rather than the usual request to cellphone providers for the data. ...

But none of this turns microwave ovens into cameras, nor is this wire-tapping by Obama, that's the whacky loony part, but because Trumpf uses an unsecured phone he is open for the stingray hack by anyone, but if it were Obama or an intelligence agency or a law enforcement agency they would have needed a warrant.
