Message Subject !!! Holy Crap, I Just Found The Freakiest Thing On Google Speech To Text, You Gotta Read This !!!

So on the google speech to text on my android phone, if you dont want to type a message you just click on a little microphone button and say whatever you want and it spells out what you said, no big deal....

I am listening to the Yankee game on the radio in real time and for fun I press the microphone and let it record a few seconds of the game in real time. Instantly it gives me back the name of the radio station in new york. So I try it again and it says, "new york yankees, new york, new york"

For those of you that don't grasp the importance of this, it means google can monitor the incoming data in real time and find a match on the airwaves in a milisecond and know what I am listening to. Know you know they listen to every piece of audio in the world at once, the rabbit hole gets deeper.

What's the big deal? Sounds to me like it worked exactly as advertised. You fed it an acoustic signal which it converted to text. Once in text it was easy to look up works in an index and out came Yankees. Well, once you have Yankees then New York, New York is a no-brainer.

If you don't want it to know what you're listening to, then don't use the speech to text feature!
