What's worse is that my wife and I were talking about particular states, then the spam calls we started to get had area codes from those states. Once is a coincidence. 5 times is a pattern.

Since we don't leave any apps open on our Android phones, we assume it's because Google was listening (their version of Siri is Bixby, which we use from time to time) then selling that information. It was probably a one-off, since this was only for a short window of time (2 weeks), but it was blatant.

I keep disabling Bixby permissions (x5 apps) and Android re-enables them on updates or whether I left some "allow to change system settings" checked, it's a huge information drainage.

If we have to.
