They need speech recognition for their Alexa/Google Home like hardware product: https://portal.facebook.com https://portal.facebook.com

- ToFab123 8y agoOh my... Some people are actually going to let Facebook listen in on everything. Wow. Not in a million years in my house.

When using Alexa functionality Facebook isn’t suppose to “listen” at all. (Though not sure if these queries still flow through their servers or not?) https://portal.facebook.com/help/2149102838698668/ https://portal.facebook.com/help/2149102838698668/
