He works for the mobile phone industry. He's a paid shill to ensure that no one doubts their device, in case it hurts sales.

So, just to be clear here, perhaps for those hard of reading, that article doesn’t say that your mobile phone is listening to your spoken work, to send you ads
Which was my point
Upon proof, I’ll happily change my mind
And yes, I’ll fit your screen protector, that is my job. What’s your problem with that? Is that funny?
