Nope. And I agree that it is no bueno. When I worked in aerospace, we were not allowed to have cell phones in meetings, for this reason. Of course, if you aren't doing anything defense related, the likelihood of that listening in is reduced by orders of magnitude. Who of our adversaries care about things most people do? People say all kinds of stuff on FaceBook that I would never mention. If I had an actual FB account, that is. My niece and daughter-in-law report every trivial detail of their day. My wife sees it, and tells me the important stuff, which is essentially nothing, about it. "We had blueberry waffles for breakfast", etc. Big Grin

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
