This is a discussion about 壁に耳あり障子に目あり

English needs correction I believe

'wall have ears'

I think that's literal but understandable. What I could understand with "walls have ears" is we don't know (if there's) who is listening, who is observing the situation in a specific context.

@mariometehunter I think they just mean it should be "walls" and not "wall."
