They are indeed.

Those are actually micro-miniature UHF radio transmitters, and they're
used as bugging devices.  They are planted there by the CIA.  Just one
of the many devious ploys the government uses to keep tabs on ordinary,
honest citizens.  Well, you wouldn't want to think that your tax money
is going to waste, would you?

Have a Nice Day.
