Wow. Thanks for sharing that. Most surprised with being able to listen in on a conversation even though the phone isn't in an active call.

They should have fingerprint readers on BBs like they do for laptops.

Did anyone hear the <oops> in the video? O.K. I will give you the answer, the narrator said they can turn on the "speaker." If you turn on the speaker, they can hear you. I guess he meant to turn on the microphone. But be careful out there, the FBI doesn't need to install the software on your phone. They can tap in anyway.
