Abstract
This document describes techniques and apparatuses directed at preventing eavesdropping resources from acquiring unauthorized data via mechanically excitable sensors. In aspects, an electronic device includes a privacy manager configured to analyze one or more signals generated by a mechanically excitable sensor. Responsive to the analysis, the privacy manager may extract unauthorized data from the one or more signals based on a signal received at a mechanical transducer, and further based on calibration data collected during an interaction between the mechanically excitable sensor and the mechanical transducer during a prior calibration sequence.
