WHISTLEBLOWER: FACEBOOK LISTENS IN ON YOUR CONVERSATIONS AT HOME AND AT WORK

From PJM:

Cambridge Analytica whistleblower Christoper Wylie, appearing before a committee of British MPs on Tuesday, said that Facebook has the ability to spy on users in their homes and offices. 

The British parliament is investigating Cambridge Analytica's involvement in the Brexit election. MP Damian Collins, who chaired the committee, asked Wylie whether Facebook has the ability to listen to what people are talking about in order to better target them with ads. 

"There's been various speculation about the fact that Facebook can, through the Facebook app on your smartphone, listen in to what people are talking about and discussing and using that to prioritize the advertising as well," Collins said. "Other people would say, no, they don't think it's possible. It's just that the Facebook system is just so good at predicting what you're interested in that it can guess." He asked for Wylie's thoughts on the possibility. 

"On a comment about using audio and processing audio, you can use it for, my understanding generally of how companies use it... not just Facebook, but generally other apps that pull audio, is for environmental context," Wylie said. "So if, for example, you have a television playing versus if you're in a busy place with a lot of people talking versus a work environment." 

He clarified, "It's not to say they're listening to what you're saying. It's not natural language processing. That would be hard to scale. But to understand the environmental context of where you are to improve the contextual value of the ad itself" is possible. Wylie continued: "There's audio that could be useful just in terms of are you in an office environment, are you outside, are you watching TV?" 

Facebook has long denied allegations that its app listens in on users in order to customize ads.

GO READ THE WHOLE THING.

Even this whistleblower is denying that Facebook is listening to specific words.

But they do.

I have friends and family who work in high-level Executive positions for some of the top Advertising firms in the world.  Trust me, I have had these discussions with them directly.

Facebook and other advertising companies can hear specific words you say, and then they will begin running ads based upon those key words.
