Is YOUR phone spying on you? Shocking report reveals how Samsung devices can monitor what you view online using ultrasonic tracking
A shocking report has revealed that Samsung phones are using technology that can spy on users through a technique called 'beaconing.'
The creepy technology can monitor everything you're reading and watching online, including personal emails and even porn.
In light of the findings, the Open Rights Group is calling for Samsung to own up and switch off the technology.
A 'beacon', which is often embedded in web pages or hidden in online adverts, alerts the phone to switch on this spy mode.
The shocking findings were revealed by Jim Killock, Executive Director of Open Rights Group, while speaking with The Sun Online.
Mr Killock told The Sun: 'Samsung want to get to know you – but they are behaving like a peeping Tom.
