    Scary. but at the same time couldn't I stop this by having something (like a phone) vibrate on my desk while I am typing? Similar to how whitenoise cancels out microphones?

    Just before I started typing this response I verified there were no iPhones anywhere on my desk just in case. ;)

    Erm.. or just move your phone elsewhere..? I thought this would have been the more obvious approach rather than have it constantly vibrating heh :D
