Rip every radio out of your phone. It will still leak your inputs.
Capacitive touchscreens scan sequentially. Your finger touching the screen affects the local impedance and modulates the emissions.

This level of fumble need to be studied.
❗️ An Israeli startup founder secretly uploaded a cluster of malicious typosquatted npm packages that impersonate Anthropic, Vercel, LangChain, Ollama, OpenAI and Aspect Security and profile developer machines on install.
The packages skip passwords and tokens by design. Instead, the install script harvests identity: hostname, every git and SSH email on the box, teammate emails from the git reflog, AWS/GCP profile and account details, and the corporate DNS domain, all shipped to a Google Cloud Run endpoint.
There were about 20k downloads before takedown.
If we get the cool sort of aligned ASI that gives us effectively infinite intelligence to build and create at scale, we will likely end up building black holes and harnessing them for energy, manufacturing, and quantum simulations.
For a spinning (Kerr) black hole, efficiencies reach ~10–42% of the infalling rest-mass energy converted to usable radiation - far surpassing nuclear fusion (~0.7%) or even antimatter annihilation in practicality for bulk use.
Quasars demonstrate this on galactic scales. A civilization could feed asteroids, waste, or dedicated fuel into a disk around a stellar-mass or mini black hole and harvest the output with collectors or Dyson-like structures. Spheres around stars are child’s play versus gravitational singularity industry.
I’m generally opposed to over-regulation, but we’d want to be very careful where we build these and who is in charge of them 🤣.
