Some of us don't need electronic assistance to hear voices...

Was it juicy goss?
I'm happy to find you here :-D

literaturelady.bsky.social•20 days ago

Yay!!!! So good to see you! It picked up a phone call for a moment.🤣

sarcasmprof.bsky.social•20 days ago

This might not be ok, but I kinda like eavesdropping on ppl's conversations. 🙈

How old were you when you started wearing them?

literaturelady.bsky.social•20 days ago

35? Some time around then.

Nice, I started at 10, I don't really use the Bluetooth features as much. Too many notifications in my ears

ezslims.bsky.social•17 days ago

I'm 39, had robot ears for most of my life

Could be the start of a mystery novel. 🕵🏻‍♀️

I am already on it.🤣 It occurred to me that when hearing aids went Bluetooth that they can be hackable and it would make a great book plot.

My thought exactly! New technologies bring new plot devices.

Every so often my phone is like "would you like to cast to your neighbor's smart TV instead of yours??" and I briefly amuse myself with the thought of making them watch Dimension 20 or something.

My neighbor did this with porn to my TV when I was having a Yellowjackets watch party with my friends.

It's clearly so sketchy! I have no idea who thought there didn't need to be some kind of security confirmation on the other side, because I can immediately think of how to abuse it. I mean, I joke about showing D&D to my sports-watching neighbors, but you could easily use it to harass, intimidate,

acts-of-tekla.bsky.social•24 days ago

or threaten someone. Porn, sure, but also, like, MAGAt YouTube videos.

Or even frame them for watching illegal material.

I was stuck in a big traffic jam and the Bluetooth in the car radio picked up some woman’s work call. I could tell it was work because they used terms like “unpack that for me” and “that moves the needle”.

spaceorcats.bsky.social•24 days ago

Eek!

Space Cat!
