Anybody who puts one of these devices in their home and expects to be fully in control of it or not being spied on is deluded. I'm not saying they're wrong in their expectations, I definitely have an expectation that I won't be spied or eaves dropped on in my own home as well. But that's why I don't put an always on mic that is sending everything it records off to a US company on us servers, running software no-one can see the source code of. Seriously, it boggled my mind how you an expect the Facebook telescreen or the google/amazon spy mic to respect your privacy when we know the business model of these companies and the potential for abuse. Even assuming they didn't want to spy, they could easily be compelled to by an alphabet agency and you'd never know. And for what? So you can order more coffee from Amazon without lifting a finger, or so you can pause Spotify without pressing on the remote? Come on...
