Many smartphone viruses can invade our most private conversations.  An infected smartphone just needs to be in the same room and anyone can hear what is being said.  In the future all smartphone devices will most likely have to install software to detect and protect from hackers, malware and viruses.  It makes me think twice about what I text, say or photograph with my phone.
