    Every time a machinist wants to create their own products/business, it's always knives and/or fidget toys. At least this guy makes more impressive fidget non-sense than the gazillionth "tactical titanium fidget spinner".

    Don't remember where I know this since it's been years since I was into privacy. But your phone is listening to you even if it's locked. Doesn't matter if you have android or apple, they all share everything with each other.
