Careful with that cellphone

US television network 13 WTHR has cautioned viewers to be careful where they leave their cellphones following reports of some alarmingly efficient new spy softwares.

The insert has found its way onto Youtube at http://www.youtube.com:80/watch?v=uCyKcoDaofg, and has already attracted well over a million views by cell phone users concerned about personal privacy following the development of invasive software like Flexiphone and Spyphone, which can eavesdrop on conversations miles away even when the cellphone is not active.

It’s a cautionary tale worth viewing in a global society where cellphones are such an integral part of our lives, and the bottom line is – keep that cellphone safe!
