Is your phone really listening to you? DailyMail.com puts it to the test on a brand-new cell

Your smartphone is not listening to you around the clock -- but it's collecting so much information that it does not even need to. It has long been speculated that Apple, Google, Samsung and other popular phone makers are recording users 24/7 to collect information for advertising purposes. Most of us have seemingly randomly been promoted an advert for a product that we could have sworn was only talked about in private. To test this, we set up a freshly-factory-reset Samsung phone, using a new Google account on the Android device. We created a fictitious person named Robin, 22, and made a fake a Facebook account for him to use.
