TV watching You
When my husband and I first got into the church, RD Whalen preached a message on The Beast and talked about how you could be watched through the TV in the future. I was so freaked out that when I gave birth to my daughter in the hospital room, I asked my husband to turn the TV around facing backwards. Well, here we are:

Re: TV watching You
P.S. I have had a piece of paper taped over my laptop's webcam for a couple of years.

Re: TV watching You
I remember back in the 80s hearing messages that the government was watching through the fiber optic lines. My mom used to put a coat or comforter over the tv whenever we would be staying in a hotel room.
It's not just limited to smart tv's. Some cell phones have been hacked and the front-facing camera used to watch as well.

Yes, RD Whalen said it was through the fiber optic lines. I don't know if that was true or not but it was basically prophetic.
Here's my laptop. Not sure what those two dots are to the left of the camera.

THis is true, even back in the day of analog phones they could listen to you when on standby, and still ping/track you when turned off.
You want to get into big brother watching/tracking you.... Google the testimony of Carl Sanders, the Godfather of "The Mark" (RFID) and he he came to Christ

Re: TV watching You
Look. Impossible with tube tv's.
Possible with smart tv's that have a built in camera.

And webcams. I find it interesting how especially church people who heard this all their life poo poo this stuff. It's like desensitization.

Re: TV watching You
If your TV does not have a web cam, it cannot "watch" you. I also remember hearing (during the 80's) how your television (if you were a UPC family foolish enough to still have one after being preached into hell for disobeying your pastors order to get rid of it) could be turned into a device to monitor you from afar. Sorry, but aliens a billion years more advanced than us could not make something like that happen. Tube TV's simple did not have the capability. LCD and Plasma TV's do NOT have the capability -unless it was built in to begin with.
