Verizon, posing as Spectrum Mobile, just offered me "unlimited services" for $17.95 a month, assuming I use their cell phone. It turns out, the phone has a removable battery. Of course, I turned down the offer.
RAM retaining information after the power is off even in desktops (acting as an EPROM) has been around for over 10 years. Your hard drive reporting everything you do on your computer as soon as you connect to the Internet has had a hardware feature to do the same for at least 6-8 years by now. Windows 10 already has a keylogger built in and all the previous versions of Windows had back doors through which everything on your machine was accessible for those familiar with the feature (they changed it periodically; hence come the so-called “Windows updates”). After the “Patriot” Act, security programs have been simply collecting your data and sending them to the appropriate agencies that, for a while, used to be country-dependent (they spied for the country from which they were operating), but that sort of thing ended about a couple of years ago, thanks to the worldwide cooperation in the name of “public health” or something.
At this point, apparently, there is a battery backup in cell phones with removable batteries, too. A Faraday cage will do nothing, except delay the inevitable; the recordings will be forwarded as soon as the phone is connected to a network. Locking the device in a sound-proof box or keeping it away from everyone does work, but it might raise a red flag.
I'm wondering when removable batteries truly disabled cell phones last time... My five-year-old Samsung eats up half of its battery life even when turned off overnight and I forget to remove the battery. (Well, otherwise, it’s usually on for 2-3 minutes a day, while I check for messages.)
A Few Words About Cell Phone and Computer Security
My wife's iPhone 6 has the same battery issues.
But if you open it up there only seems to be one battery there.
Thank-you Ray for your reassuring reply. Yes, I've come to believe that AI is quite a joke. There are days when l get so sad about the state of the world but overall l truly feel it will eventually be a better world when those of us that remain have overcome the agenda of the elite psychopaths. It is crazy to realize how EVIL these psychopaths really ARE! Again, thank-you!!!
