I heard a person call into a show the other day, voice only, and talk about some poor working conditions at a factory. Made me think about how it would probably be so easy for nefarious bosses to be able to identify that person through voice recognition SW with all of the data that comes from us looking directly into cameras and speaking clearly in modern workplace meetings.

Do “anonymous” callers need to start using voice modulation software for these kinds of calls in the modern world?

    Companies would only do it in response to an incident.
    Same as any IT related thing. IT will block bad websites, maybe have some alerts for common stuff, but will only sift through logs when something goes wrong so they can assess the extent, impact and fixes for things.

    The exceptions are probably like Amazon where they have the processing power and dev-time to do things like this to their own employees, which might also turn into a marketable product for other companies.
    Military contractors might as well (Boeing…)
