You have a voice powered operating system in your pocket with any modern cell phone. Sure, you can trigger it off using a software switch but do you really trust that?
Apparently enough people trust it that they keep buying the latest phone models year after year.
Anyone who is terrified by this technological shift should at least be cognizant that you are already basically recorded in some way whenever you go out in public in any major city.
This is just the next shift.
- IntronExon 9y agoI can’t control anything beyond my home, but that’s an ancient fact of life. I can monitor what’s being sent and received by my phone or computers, but Alexa or whatever Google has? This is more than the “next shift” and I can feel the water getting too hot for this frog.
- singularity2001 9y agowhat is the difference between your computer's https traffic and Alexas? you can record both and decipher neither (unless you're very clever)
- CaptSpify 9y agoThe difference is that I have near total control of my computer's https traffic, whereas I don't have hardy any control over Alexa's.
