what your hearing is the hard drive , there is no camera or microphone in any receiver

It is possible. I will not get into my story because it's currently on going. Read the story about Cox Cable spies on user's through their cable boxes on Tech Dirt. They can see and hear you. Also hear through the remote. Cops can also, especially if you don't have a cell phone they cannot access. There's all kinds of things going on that most people don't know about. Look up Stingrays/dirt boxes too.
