At some point, everyone who carries a mobile phone with them will have “butt-dialed” someone, committing the act of inadvertently making a call via unconscious but sophisticated buttock actions while a phone is in a pocket. The consequences are generally low, just subjecting someone to a muffled bit of eavesdropping. Occasionally, the consequences can be much higher, as in the cases of people who have butt-upgraded their Teslas via the Tesla mobile app, often resulting in thousands of dollars in unwanted purchases.
