Title: Bug In The Chrome Browser Post by: bama57 on January 22, 2014, 01:53:45 PM Google's Chrome Web browser offers voice control for touchless interface use, but a bug in this system makes it possible for websites to "eavesdrop" on you, reports Gizmodo.
This flaw was originally discovered by a web developer named Tal Ater, who writes that "[M]alicious sites can activate your microphone and listen in on anything said around your computer, even after you’ve left those sites[...] Conversations, meetings and phone calls next to your computer may be recorded and compromised." Here's a video that demonstrates the bug in action. http://www.businessinsider.com/chrome-eavesdropping-bug-2014-1 Title: Re: Bug In The Chrome Browser Post by: SUPERCOACH on January 22, 2014, 05:39:13 PM That is scary.
