Video of the Day: Tucker Carlson asks, Is Facebook listening to you?

(Chris) Wylie also said he believed it was possible the social media giant and other smartphone apps were, in fact, tapping into users’ audio to customize ads.

“There’s audio that could be useful just in terms of, are you in an office environment, are you outside, are you watching TV, what are you doing right now?” Wylie said.
