The Spy in Your Hand

According to Sid Kirchheimer, in an article called "Scam Proof Your Life" in AARP, there is supposedly an application software that can be programmed into your phone that sends a message to the spy indicating all activity. The phone can even be turned into a surreptitious microphone.

I find this type of technology compelling yet scary at the same time. I read that is can be used by controlling parents, suspicious spouses, or even scam artists. It seems we have become far too technologically dependent and this can lead to such situations as our information becoming accessible to scammers.
