Lord knows what is going on in our phones, thanks to musk, his ilk, and those kilometres of? updated conditions in small print we seem to ingest daily.

With apologies to Santa Claus - Aaye Eye is comin' to town He sees you when you're sleeping He knows when you're awake He knows if you've been bad or good So be good for goodness sake! You better watch out!
