A new app has been released for the Apple Watch which keeps trrack of one's heartbeat, oxygen level etc. as well as being sensitive enough to flag if one has sleep apnia issues. Thesee capabilities are opt-in by default.

Why is this one scary? The Apple Watch monitors all sorts of stuff 23/7 (1 hour for charging without monitoring). It monitors my heart rate, my activity, my O2 saturation, it measures my swimming lap by lap (and even knows which stroke is being done for each lap), and a bunch of other stuff. It sends it to my phone where it is stored in a database, and i can easily share it with my doctor (if I ever find a doctor that is sophisticated enough to do so). These are the main reasons many people buy and use an Apple Watch.

I decided to drill down into my Samsung Smart-TV setting to make sure that it's ability to monitor local speech was disabled - and am not able to find all the required settings.

When you can't find the applicable setting, there is always the fail-safe setting for this purpose ... it is called "the plug". 😅
