Besides having something impede your vocal cords on que, I don't think there is any convert way to do this. Either displine yourself to keep silent, pick up sign language, or just pass notes. The other option is to mask yourself with noise.

You have grabbed the wrong end of the stick.

The companies who want to listen are mostly harmless. Unless you are a paranoid schizophrenic, you don't care if Amazon steers you away from a soap company who has ties to Google Wallet.

The big advertisers and manipulators merely want a few dollars a month from you. Google brings in $100 billion a year. Do the math. That is $5 a month for their "victims" in the First World.

Big deal. You waste more money than this to peeing while at work.

Instead think about politics. Do you want to attack your national government from the inside? Then you have a problem. Those people have smart workers, a lot of data, and they want to know who has something to hide. They can track mobile devices and people. They will know if you travel near microphones and those microphones stop working when you do.

You are basically asking Voat "Please, how do I point a giant flashing red arrow at myself so the state surveillance apparatus knows to watch me?" So sad.

Instead you should plug yourself into the surveillance machine. Let them record you being a fully engaged, mildly annoyed, but not disaffected citizen who is cowed into submission. Reserve your true thoughts for times and places when there are no devices.

Use airtight information security practices. For example, make a habit of traveling with no devices "to unwind". Then while on such travel buy burner devices with removable batteries with cash. Remove the batteries immediately. Only install the batteries while on no-device travel, and use them to communicate with your conspirators via text message. (Voice communication will lead them straight to you via voice fingerprinting.)

Oh, you said cheap and easy. Nevermind. If you want to stay truly secret these days you have to put in a lot of effort.

As a sound and electronics enthusiast, as far as I can tell, that would be some serious spy type shit and not cheap. I assume you want to be able to talk to people but not sound like you to a microphone. So you either have to disable the mic or camouflage your voice. Disabling mics around you with sound cancellation would be obvious because this technology is never perfect, and people couldn't hear you then either. I saw you mention subsonic waves in replies, they require very large speakers and lots of power, and you can either feel them in your body or they are too slow to have any effect. Supersonic waves couldn't specifically target mics.

Electromagnetically speaking, any field strong enough to interfere with recording devices would almost certainly cause permanent damage to all complex electronics. It would also emit crazy radio interference and you would probably go to federal prison for operating such a device as radio frequencies are federally regulated and the signal you gave off would be both strong and easily triangulateable.

That leaves us with camouflaging your voice. Through technological means, real-time voice alteration is probably expensive if it exists at all. The only thing I can think of is maybe you could find an old acting teacher to train you to camouflage your voice through more traditional means. Probably not cheap though, or fast.

Thank you for the serious reply. Im assuming a high pitch dog whistle like sound wpuld have the same problems as a subsonic sound?

It's a fun problem. A dog whistle like sound is a supersonic sound, so hi frequency instead of low frequency like subsonic. The problem with supersonic is that it is a form of energy that is so small and fast that it just goes through or bounces off of almost everything without affecting it, microphones don't even notice. The worst that supersonic can do when cranked to high energy output is heat stuff up. This heat would radiate from the device in a field and could not specifically target microphones. At least not without some SERIOUS engineering and money.

Ghettoblaster on your shoulder and screeching music of some kind should do it.

Put a handkerchief over the reciever.

I've been looking up for some alternate technical use of 'handkerchief,' but I honestly have no idea what you're getting at. Do you just mean the regular chloroform+rag combo? I doubt you go on a list for looking that up.
