Loose Lips, Sinks Ships


Shush, it is a Secret.........


Amazon, Apple and Google all employ staff who listen to customer voice recordings from their smart speakers and voice assistant apps’.  Apparently to enhance voice recognition techniques.........Like hell it is.........….

From BBC on line 11th April, 2019. (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news)






Then there are the Smart Televisions that can record what is in front of them.

Search engines that record searches – again to enhance one’s experience and never, ever to direct appropriate advertisements..............like hell it is............

Banks, Credit Card companies, not to mention supermarkets that end up knowing more about you than you know yourself.

We are becoming a world where little or nothing is secret, personal or in fact private anymore.

A little personal experience I have had regarding such advertising:   In an old blog I wrote of Ireland and quoted a beautiful poem.  It included the line ‘and never was piping so gay, and never was piping so sad’.

About three days later, some advertisements appeared on my page, informing me of several ‘gay’ clubs in Dublin................

The Walls have Ears’ has never been truer...............
