Your smartphone may be watching you: what the green dot reveals

The article explains that a green dot on a smartphone may indicate hidden activity, but the main content is dedicated to the causes of slow Wi-Fi speeds and interference in the 2.4 GHz band from household appliances, as well as tips for improving the signal.

The article on the 'Kursor' website begins with a headline suggesting that a smartphone may be tracking the user and that a green dot is an indicator of hidden activity. However, the main content of the article is dedicated to problems with slow Wi-Fi speeds and interference in the 2.4 GHz band. The author explains that the cause may be microwave ovens, Bluetooth devices, wireless cameras, baby monitors, and other household appliances. It is also mentioned that the router is often placed behind a television, which worsens the signal. The article provides practical advice: place the router in the center of the apartment, above floor level, and use the 5 or 6 GHz bands. At the end, it suggests checking internet speed in different rooms independently. The headline and introduction create an expectation of a topic about surveillance, but the article does not cover it, focusing instead on the technical aspects of Wi-Fi.
