German is one of the 2 languages Alexa supports, so they must use it a little

  There are other countries speaking German, that have a different outlook on privacy. However, as usual there are parts of the german society that won't have any issues using stuff like Alexa. "I have nothing to hide" is also a popular way of thinking in Germany, history be damned.

    What other countries? Neither Austria nor Switzerland have a much different view on privacy.

      I went out of an IT-project targeting Germany, France and Austria with the impression that the view on privacy in Austria is a lot more relaxed, and at least the interpretation of its privacy laws was less strict as well. Could be a subjective impression, linked to the project and wrong when looking at the bigger society, but at least so far I believed it. I acknowledge that Austria was also part of the streetview hysteria that broke the project over here. Might be a differing indicator.
