10 years ago OP would've been labeled a schizo, now we just accept there's microphones in everything
You know the irony of this is? My ex-fiances father was labeled as schizophrenic. I mean he was by textbook definition. One day, I would take her to visit him, he says that computers are tracking you. Now, I brushed it off at the time, probably a conspiracy theory right? but I did think about it.
L3 was tracking internet data already, at least, in the early 2000's. A little game of what's connecting to my computer showed me that, but I didn't know what it was at the time. Well now I know, g-sec company has been tracking us from routers for over twenty years; same company after the merger that makes EOTECHs. So the puzzle pieces came together.
I kind of wondered if he really was schizophrenic or medicated to be so? As an a example, tramadol made me have auditory hallucinations that I've never experience on acid or mushrooms (college lol).
It's sad isn't it?
The walls are listening
I will still argue phones listen to us. Don't care what you say, it happens. Act accordingly
I'm tempted to try this but I'm not sure how to identify the microphone or whether it would be in my remote or the TV itself. Is there some sort of guide on doing this?
While it's not always the case, try to look for a 2x4 silver rectangle with a hole in it like the one on my finger. The casing is to isolate it from the nearby radio waves and the hole to let sound through.
While you're at it, disconnect your "smart TV" from the internet!
Which means disconnecting it's WiFi, because some may connect to open hotspots without asking.
ISP routers/modems will often have secondary wifi networks that allow access to subscribers. I can absolutely believe these smart devices connect to them automatically.
Buy your own modem and router, and root the router to install Open Source firmware that gives you control of the internet.
And maybe do some Minecraft stuff with the Flock camera down the street.
Do people here still have their smartphones or are these things the first on the microphone hitlist?

Things will become more obscure and harder to disable. In fact since you own nothing and you'll be happy, youre damaging government property and the police are already dispatched to take you to a totally cool and totally legal prison slave camp.
I'll go down swinging with my hoarded DDR3 sticks
Nah they won't send the cops, you just gotta drink a verification can

Greetings from Sony.
I thought that greentext was so outrageous when it first appeared, and now its probably going to be reality at some point.
FYI: Any speaker can and will be used as a microphone.
Disable your speakers and run your audio out through an amp/speaker-bar that has no internet connection.
You might not be able to stop Jack Bauer from personally tracking you, but the sort of dragnet surveillance most people are worried about can still, for now, be mitigated with effort.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
