Imagine being this naive lmao its already been proven that even popular safe apps access your mic and camera constantly without your knowledge or permission Because it's not an actual issue. You can check your phone's battery usage and phones will even show battery usage when app is active vs background. Apps by far are not utilizing the camera and microphone in the background and sending it to a 3rd party, because anyone can see that app is using a lot of resources and remove it. Not to mention the fact your phone is constantly dying and requiring charging multiple times a day would be a big indicator to check what is using the resources. If you want to live in paranoia about a problem that doesn't exist, go ahead. --- http://i.imgur.com/BBcZDLJ.png <cite>Tmaster148 posted [p:977063532] in Are you pa...
