Cameras in Digital Convert Boxes!

Hidden Spy Camera & Mic Found Inside Digital TV Box.
A popular video circulating on You Tube shows the discovery of a spy camera and a microphone hidden inside a digital TV converter box.

Theres also a video trying to debunk it, but its so dark you can´t see anything.

As far as I know these things are receivers and can´t transmit, without other electronic parts.

Any electronic experts on here?

Glad that myths been cleared up then, I thought it was unlikely but you never know🙂

Would have convinced more people if he opened the box in the video.

dont think they would use the boxes as many tv's can convert..wait unless all new televisions have cams too....ahhhhh! who cares..I would moon my converter box once a day...or I would put a full jack daniels bottle right in front of the camera/box and have a recorder device right beside set on low that says f*** you constantly..Ill just keep a charger hooked up to it..hehe...they want to see me then they can see through my eyes jack daniels style damn it!

Do it anyway...even if there isn't a camera...just for the fun of it.

wonder how messed up that would look though a bottle of whiskey..lol..

Depends where you've put the bottle.

Quite an interesting idea, maybe some modern artist will steal your idea and make a "moon through a whisky bottle" work.🙂

Something bad?...Definitely...I've seen 1 guy 1 cup

ya know Im just gonna throw my converter box out the damn door and hook back up dish network..lol

that video has been proven hoax by alex jones of all people

The second reply showed it was a fake🙂

too lazy to read all replies eh.

what about safelink cell phones? A new thread perhaps..lol..I and now my wife are living off unemployment checks...free healthcare for our family...yea woohoo etc..(sounds nice but sux not having a job at least at my age..maybe younger I would have enjoyed it) I saw an ad on tv anyone getting assistance or making little or no money get this free cell phone with free minutes that carry over government funded...whats up with that????
to be honest when we got approved I laughed said the conspiracy forum at kmc could eat this up...but then I thought maybe just an idea I have not checked into..if I owned a cell phone company like tracfone and the government was giving away $ I would jump and set a deal to use the $ to "help" citizens by giving them government controlled communication devices...do these new phones have gps etc..whats up???hehe just drunken thoughts but tis true if your down and out you get a free phone with minutes that carry over 4ever
