Hey, heads up.
A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that accidental phone calls [butt dialing] aren’t private. You might not have intended for the recipient of the call to hear what you were saying, but you still called, and that means the recipient is entitled to listen—and even to record the call, the court said.
Two things:
1. Check your cell phone before making whoopee.
2. If Donald Trump butt dials you, you flip that phone on record as fast as you can.
Thanks to chloe bear for the heads up.
I liked the one where these two idiots were stealing the fancy wheels off someone’s car and one of them butt dialed 911.
1Listen, I have a hard enough time using my fingers to dial this stupid phone. I’m not using my butt. Or have I missed something from the Urban Dictionary.
2“Butt dialing”??? Things like this make me feel old beyond my years…..
3Isn’t ANY phone call made by “The THE” considered a “butt dial call?
4I think Trump would be a butthead dial call.
5I can barely enter numbers, etc., correctly using my fingers–how on earth do people “butt-dial”???
6For the more decorous, I’ve heard it called “pocket dialing”. And I still don’t know how it happens.
7Spouse did that once. He called to say he had to stay a little late at work…. and then I listened to him, “She fell for it, (accompanied by bar sounds). It wasn’t exactly a butt call, rather a failure to hang up. I took my time to remind him about butt calls until the perfect moment, and it was “perfect”.
8Rhea, still laughing about the “butthead dial”.
9I think it was somebody in McConnell’s office who accidentally left his phone on when he placed it in his pant’s pocket and some stuff was overheard that never should have hit the air waves. Some of these people just don’t know how to handle modern technology – – thank goodness.
