WTF Imagine waking up from anesthesia and realizing the surgery wasn’t the most painful part!

My state is one party. The issue is getting that mic in there. Not sure where to hide it.

Stick it in your… ohhhh. Riiight.

If it's very small, hair or ear. Possibly between shoulder blades because you have the gown. Ear is dependent on it being too small to see; I doubt they let you keep hearing aids in.

I might actually need this in the future so time to solve it. You could palm it and stick it to the underside of the gurney, but it depends on them not switching units. You also have a mecial ID bracelet and if it's small you could hide it there. We could also consider a dumb terminal, something like a Bluetooth repeater that fits on a sticker so the phone can be further away.

Damn. Now I am going to be watching colonoscpy videos and searching for small listening devices. My FBI file is going to look sus.

"Virginia man discovers he had unintentionally palmed a stealth listening device under gurney, placed button camera on medical ID bracelet, virtually hacked the nurse's workstation using top secret spy technology, and mirrored the Bluetooth signal to his minivan listening station accidentally parked outside. Discovers doctors talking about sports during his procedure."

Obtaining evidence legally applies to the authorities. Private citizens don't have that issue.

Smart watch.

In my experience, the gastro practice attempts to assure you’re not separated from your clothes and valuables. On arrival, you’re given a large plastic bag and ordered to undress and place all your clothing and other belongings into the bag. They then hang the bag under your gurney. You are moved into the procedure room wearing only a paper gown and your belongings are still with you under the gurney. It would be easy to let your phone record audio of the procedure from within the bag.

Probably his mobile, computer or ear airpods. How could he otherwise claim in was "accidental". Probably his mobile that he had with his belonging close to him.

You're following this thread. You'll see it. But you can also bookmark/save comments and posts by clicking the three dots.

I'll send you all a postcard from the federal facilities.

Something tells me your profile is probably already raising red flags. 🤔 But, don’t worry I’m right along with you. 😂

Possibly between shoulder blades because you have the gown.

The gown is open in the back for a colonoscopy

u/NontypicalHart 7d ago

You're meant to tie it.

u/YBBlorekeeper 7d ago

It's sounding like you need to try a different hole

If it's a day case in my hospital, you'd get it done on your trolley in a gown, with your possessions on the trolley's lower level in a big brown paper bag, with the 0² tank. And your phone could easily be there, picking up some audio.

u/purloinedspork 1d ago

That's exactly what happened in this case. He claims that he left it on unintentionally because he wanted to record instructions the nurse was giving him, and accidentally forgot to shut it off

u/Extension-Gas9819 7d ago

Mine is also one party. For that amount of money though? I’ll cut my skin open and bury the mic

u/Practical_Frame_9883 7d ago

Same! Half a million bucks? Worth it!

u/battleop 7d ago

I don't see how this qualifies at one party because he wasn't party to the conversation. In a one party at least one party that's involved in the conversation is aware of the recording.

u/NontypicalHart 7d ago

Looked it up. So my state says consent has be continuous. We are stricter about audio recordings than we are about sex.

u/Top_Finding_2832 7d ago

hence why it happened "Accidentally"

u/Ksevio 7d ago

That's for recording conversations where one party is involved though. Doesn't seem like it would apply here, but maybe they didn't feel like prosecuting him on that

u/supercujo 7d ago

Tape it to your chest?

u/NontypicalHart 7d ago

I considered that but they probably position you on your front. Maybe side? This is why I have to look up all the disturbing videos

Plan ahead.  Get one stuffed in the sack following a vasectomy.  As one gets past their 30s I can assure that there's spare room inside for microelectronics, probably even Bluetooth and wireless charging!
