Shocking leak suggests your phone really is listening in on your conversations

Millions of people have long suspected it, but now a leak suggests that out phones really are listening to us. 

An apparent pitch deck from one of Facebook's marketing partners appears to detail how the firm eavesdrops on users' conversations to create targeted ads. 

In a slideshow, Cox Media Group (CMG) claims that its 'Active-Listening' software uses AI to collect and analyze 'real-time intent data' by listening to what you say through your phone, laptop or home assistant microphone.
