[新聞] FB新專利

https://goo.gl/eSXvga 靠著GOOGLE翻譯翻一下 Facebook has repeatedly denied tapping into phones microphones for targeted advertising, but just because it isn't doesn't mean it can't. According to Metro, Facebook has applied for a controversial patent for software that will allow smartphones to begin recording when they hear secret messages hidden in TV ads. Facebook已經申請了一項有爭議的專利， 此專利將允許手機在聽到隱藏在電視廣告中的訊息並開始錄音。 As reported by Mashable, Facebook could embed high-pitched audio signals in broadcast content that -- while inaudible to humans -- could be deciphered by smartphones, triggering them into recording "ambient audio" and sending it back to Facebook. So you're watching TV, an advert comes on, then Facebook gets a recording of your response to that advert -- assuming you respond at all and aren't just sitting there with the glazed expression prompted by most TV ads. 原理的說明，利用電視的高頻信號，觸發手機錄製“環境聲音” 並將其發送回Facebook。 Unsurprisingly, people are concerned about the patent, which essentially details invasive tech not unlike that used by Spanish soccer league La Liga to spy on sports fans earlier this month. However, Facebook says it has no intention of ever implementing the technology described in the patent. In a statement, Facebook VP and Deputy General Counsel Allen Lo told us that the patent had been filed "to prevent aggression from other companies," and noted that "patents tend to focus on future-looking technology that is often speculative in nature and could be commercialized by other companies." FB在自我澄清，預先註冊專利是為了防止其他公司利用這個技術 Lo went on to say that the technology in this patent has not been included in any of Facebook's products, "and never will be." So that's okay then. Facebook is simply trying to protect us from other companies. Of course, when Zuckerberg himself is known to cover up his equipment's webcams and mics, it's not hard to see why some people might have trouble believing this. FB說我們絕對不會使用這項技術。 ---------------- 簡單來說就是利用廣告的高頻音 讓手機啟動FB或其他APP並錄音 再回應出相對應的廣告 FB自己是不會使用 但是可沒說專利不會授權 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 114.36.26.185 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/MobileComm/M.1530210236.A.011.html
