Eavesdrop keylogging #9

Seems like there's a security concern here, someone with a microphone can "keylog" what you are "typing", can we optionally have the speakers emit the sound of a slamming lid at random intervals to introduce noise that will obfuscate the signal?

veggiedefender commented 4 months ago

I think it may be better to have the speakers emit the opposite frequencies of the sound of the lid slamming, similar to noise-cancelling headphones. PRs welcome.

This seems like an important issue. You should add an important label to this one.

veggiedefender commented 4 months ago

we may need to assign this a CVE as well

Techwizz-somboo commented 4 months ago

Yes, that is a very good idea.

i am not a developer by myself, but i think playing dubstep very loudly while you type could be a temporary workaround, couldn't!?
