When you use your car’s built-in speakerphone feature, the speakers in the car door reverberate, sending the sounds outside of the car. Maybe don’t do this while your car is parked. Everyone in the neighborhood or store parking lot can hear your very intimate or business-related conversation.
My neighbours have long conversations in their cars. I can hear every word the distant party is saying.
I think the audio levels get set higher in cars to combat road noise and the missing sound spectrum of phone calls, because it sure is loud.
It’s interesting how this has blown up to basically “because the government could if it wanted to get to your personal information, fuck it, just tell everyone!
Depends on the car probably, and volume.
I have a feeling that the people blasting conversations in their car are the same ones in the airport subjecting everyone nearby to their conversations on speakerphone.
Use Signal and use headphones
Isn’t it unsafe to use headphones while driving?
The OP’s scenario is doing this while parked. While you’re driving it wouldn’t matter so much because there are only so many words somebody can hear when you pass them at 24-45mph
That makes sense. It didn’t even cross my mind that someone would connect their phone to their car’s audio system specifically to take a call unless they were driving, lol
You probably didn’t think of it because you’re not a lobotomized degenerate.
Who said anything about driving
Ah, gotcha. I was wondering why someone would be sitting in their unmoving car while having their phone connected to their car’s audio. So I figured this was while driving. But I see how I misinterpreted it now.
Use open-ear headphones like bone-conduction.
The person would need to be in your face to listen to your convo.
Difference between calling at 10% or 110% sound volume lol.
And if someone was to eavesdrop by holding their ear to my car, I’d say that’s a bit suspicious.Because you think your car’s vibrations is the biggest privacy problem when you make a phone call?
??? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say here.
I’m telling you that the car doors act like a loudspeaker, amplifying the call outside if the car. Everyone in the neighborhood can hear your private conversation about your affair, or urologist appointment,or whatever. If you think sitting in your car talking over bluetooth is going to give you some privacy, it’s quite the opposite.
I have never walked past a parked car with the windows up and heard what was being said inside unless the person inside was yelling.
I have. Lots of times.
Well maybe you should use them more wisely…
Using the car speakers as a hands free set, I can hear every word the person on the other end of the phone is saying from about 30 metres away.
I cant hear the person sat in the car but
Take your pick from the phone or the car (if newer than 2015ish).
