normally i&#x27;d say that it&#x27;s not really paranoid if they&#x27;re really out to get you...<p>but the attack vector described here. It requires too many devices actively compromised for any usable data to be gleaned. Manufacturers are somewhat sensitive to users demanding to control their devices peripherals. Microphones, webcams, cameras, speakers. It&#x27;s not perfect, but there&#x27;s enough moving parts here to make this kind of tracking seem bonkers.<p>For it to work, the person they have target will have blindly agreed to so many things that they have all the information they want on them anyway.
