It appears the name of the thread can have Son of Samsung added. According to
this broadcaster's report Samsung can listen to conversations you have in your home, using the microphone intended to change channels by voice command.
It seems Samsung does state in their privacy policy that viewers should be aware that "personal or other sensitive" conversations "will be among the data captured and transmitted to a third party" through the voice-recognition technology.
Hmmmm. I wonder how many consumers think they need to read a "privacy policy" when they purchase a television.
