Abstract
In accordance with some embodiments, an apparatus for privacy protection includes a peripheral interface connectable to a second device. In some embodiments, the second device is operably connectable to a personal communication device and the peripheral interface provides characteristics of communication signals associated with the personal communication device to the second device. The apparatus also includes a radio frequency (RF) detection device operable to detect energy carrying a communication signal to or from the personal communication device. The apparatus further includes a controller, coupled to the peripheral interface and the RF detection device, operable to scan an RF spectrum of the communication signal, received by the RF detection device, in order to identify communications associated with the personal communication device, and generate a notification upon determining that abnormal activities exist in the communications, wherein the notification triggers interruption of the communication signal.
