Spanish La Liga has been fined for spying using their fans mobile phones. There app could turn on a fans phone, listen to all speach and id exactly where you are. If the fans were watching a game in a bar that was not paying for the licence to show the game then La Liga, using this voice and location info from the phone app would sue the bar or the individual for non payment. Makes us all aware just how vulnerable we are when carrying our phones.
 
Wow! That's it, next time I'm planning a bank job I'll turn my phone off.:roflmto::roflmto::roflmto::roflmto::roflmto:

It wasn't that long ago that you had to employ a private detective to sit in a bar in dark glasses listening in on conversation between husband and bit on the side. Now all you need is a mobile phone app to take him to the cleaners.... ;) :smiley:

Year ago, I realised that with some cheap middleware, you could create an .apk that would let you scan texts for key words (sex, hotel, etc) and then identify the contact, and from then on, record all phone calls from that contact and upload them to a dropbox account in background. Additionally, you can be alerted to any calendar entries that include that contact. All you then need to do is persuade the person to install the apk, or get access to their phone and install it yourself. Obviously, tracking location, switching on the mic, etc is a cinch.

Little wonder my Dropbox account is always full... :)

Must admit it is a bit naughty, apps like this could cause havoc if not restricted with big sentences.
 
These smart phones are a bad idea.

In times past I could say I was working late, but now my wife can track me to the local pub :swear2:
 
Five minutes after coming out of M&S and google asks me what I thought of the place. Best turn it off next time I visit my lady friend. :oops:
 
Our local pub used to have a price list

‘Certain, ma’am, he’s right here.’ - free
‘He left five minutes ago.’ - £5
‘He left half an hour ago.’ - £20
‘Haven’t seen him all evening.’ - £50
‘Who?’ - £100
