The Conversnitch lamp is going to make embarrassing conversations even more embarrassing. The lamp will record private conversations and post them to Twitter automatically. The lamp can fit into any ordinary light socket and start recording conversations perfectly before posting them to the Conversnitch Twitter profile.
For those that always feel like somebody's watching them, they may be surprised to find that they're right. The Conversnitch lamp can be deployed in public or private with extreme ease. The makers of the Conversnitch say that the lamp works in an extremely similar way to NSA surveillance. The difference is that the government doesn't post findings on the Internet.
Conversnitch will be keeping people a little bit more on their toes by publicizing the juicy details.
