- Regarding Facebook is listening, my girlfriend and I was taking few years back around 2021, we usually keep our call for more than 24hrs at a time. One evening we were talking then suddenly we heard a man, talking as if he is in an office then we both stopped and listened, and he just stopped as if he accidentally unmuted. This happened again the next, night but this time it is a woman. Same, as if they were in an office environment. They were talking in English, we are not listening to anything, we were just talking then suddenly we heard them, and also we are not a native English speaker, we do not talk in English during our call. That is the the time we decided to switch to Signal, which as many say is more secure.

- Cause they are listening to you to sell data to ad companies. all hail facebook
Remember when people paid $50 for amazon alexa to spy on all ur Conversations ?
- facebook is definitely listening. We have had many instances where wife and I discussed something and an ad appeared on fb related to that.
- So it can listen to you and serve ads that track your every movement, word and thought like an uncanny evil genie?
Better question, why are you still on facebook?
- That's odd. ChatGPT (5.1) tells me Safari does not open an audio capture session for 'capability negotiation' that would show the mic icon.
I assume you have Safari > Settings > Websites > Microphone > facebook.com set to the default "Ask", or to "Deny"? Also check any installed extensions.

- “Oh, Grandma, what big ears you have!”
“The better to hear you with, my child,” came the growling reply.
