Here's one that I just became aware of:

Is my flashlight app spying on me?

This just made the rounds in the office by way of a forwarded Fox News video from last October. Here it is:

This is very alarmist and scary so I checked it out and the answer is sort of 50/50. It's not complete bs but maybe not as scary as this guy says either. Here's what Snopes has to say:

Note there isn't a False tag on this one. Here's a down the middle article about this:

This whole thing is very interesting and yes, a little scary.
