1984 is here: Samsung admits its TVs might spy on you, warns against carrying out sensitive conversations

 

 (NaturalNews) In the prescient 1984 tome, author George Orwell
wrote about a supposedly "fictitious" future in which the civilized
world lived in what can only be called a surveillance society, in which "the government" would be able to keep watch on the citizenry 24-7, and through a variety of technological means.

It turns out that Orwell's premonitions were a lot more realistic than even he likely imagined.

Today,
surveillance cameras are everywhere, at least in the modern world.
Police have a range of listening devices and surveillance technology,
some of which can see through your walls and into your home. And federal spy agencies like the NSA routinely intercept and track Internet and wireless communications.

Now, it seems, even your household goods can spy on you. As reported by Britain's Daily Mail, you might want to keep a lid on what you say this evening when you sit down in front of your television.

Samsung
has issued a warning to owners of its Internet-connected "smart TV" --
anything they say while sitting in the vicinity of the device could be
overheard.
