> Ye and Zuckerberg plugs the laptop mic with a dud cable.

Are you talking about Kanye West ? also can you expand what this means? "plugs the laptop mic with a dud cable"

What they're saying is these folks don't trust the privacy of their hardware, they use a dud cable to block the microphone from listening.

I think what they're getting at is people close to the situation (not sure why Ye is in the privacy discussion, but Zuck certainly is) don't trust the controls in place.

Appearantly there is a mixup risk using "ye" between "Kayne West" and "yeah" I wasn't aware of.

		ah, yeah Kanye goes by "Ye" I've never heard of "Ye" as meaning "Yeah" but I'm not as online as I once was (also from the US, maybe this is used elsewhere)

I can think of a lot of reasons why someone like Zuck would be targeted for surveillance but the rest of us are fine.

who has a dedicated mic input port in 2025? I doubt any CEOs do.
