l was going to post this in the Tech Lounge but so many of us have IPhones that it seemed more like a General Discussion thing.   ;)

Interesting. I am not a paranoid person so this thing doesn't bother me that much. Quite there are more ways that one that someone can track you. Trust me I know. I had a horrible experience one time of texting me whenever I went somewhere and did something. They would text me about it. I never knew who it was, etc. And I didn't even have an IPhone.

Why would a magnifying lens make anyone paranoid?

Logan not sure why it would either. But I do know people that are so afraid that the government is watching them at every corner. Pretty crazy I think. But this IPhone thing just adds fuel to that fire.

Iphones should make you paranoid...   example....

Sunday, after church, we went out to eat with some friends.....   my wife had her phone out laying on the table but never used it for anything and the screen remained blank the whole time we were there.

Then this morning, she started getting email adds for six different discussions we had with our friends that she had never received before.    Could not be anything but Siri listening in on our conversation and picking up on certain words and sending adds for those subjects....     and the number of adds just on the things we were discussing makes it rather far fetched as being coincidence.....    she gets very few emails until the last software update she got on her iphone.      I personally use an android and get stuff from Google, but I get so many adds from other places that it's hard to tell if they are listening in on my phone too, but I am guessing they are....

 

What really irritates me is when I order something from Amazon, a day later I get adds on FaceBook from Amazon for the same thing at a lower price....   and that happens a lot.   Next time I need something expensive and not in a hurry I think I'll order it and then cancel the order and see what adds show up the next day   LoL.

Question: Isn't paranoia a form of worry? I tend to think it is. And as Christians are we to worry about what can see us through the iphone. Wouldn't it make sense that if someone was spying on us through the iphone that we would show them that we live at peace with all men Romans 12:8 "f it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." and follow 1 Peter 2:17 "Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor."?

These are just food for thought that's all. I do not believe the government or people for that matter should have the ability to spy on us. But that day is fast approaching. But I digress.

I don't see being paranoid as worrying that is spoken in scripture.  I don't find the Iphones scary, just annoying...   and that feeling that someone is watching you is what paranoid is about....   and you can make that scary or not.....   but it still should give you that creepy feeling that someone is watching you out of sight.

Well, I asked Siri if she was a Christian and she said that humans had religion and she had silicon....  so unless Jesus is silicon too, she's not a believer.  Dodged the question of knowing Jesus.
