For the scientist Juan Carlos Yanez-LunaCell phone batteries allow access to what a cell phone stores, even when it is turned off.
Are privacy and technology two words that cannot go together?
The answer lies with Juan Carlos Yáñez-Luna, a scientist who claims that cell phones listen to everything, even when they are turned off.
Yáñez-Luna made this statement at the international ETHICOMP meeting, which brought together experts from 15 countries at the University of La Rioja (Spain), in order to address the ethical and social impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). At that meeting, this professional said that people should “be careful” about what they decide to store on a device.
How do they manage to hear cell phones when they are turned off?
Juan Carlos Yáñez-Luna’s theory addresses unknown territory. For him, cell phone batteries are the key, as they allow all the information they contain to be heard or viewed, even when they are turned off.
“It may be difficult to know who can view or listen to” the information contained in a cell phone when it is turned off, but it can be done because “everything is stored in one place,” said Yáñez-Luna, in statements reported by EFE.
Choose well what you want to share
Given that nothing is private when using a cell phone, the expert recommends that the information delivered to the device does not represent a risk for users.
In his words, we must “stay alert and know exactly what we can offer and what we can keep quiet about.” “This will not stop”: this is what the future of artificial intelligence will look like in 2024
Today’s cell phone batteries are made of lithium ions, designed to store electrical energy. Compared to traditional batteries, lithium ion batteries charge faster and have greater power.
Given these advantages, this type of battery is found in all types of electronic devices, and of course, especially in cell phones and computers.
