I don't get why anyone is surprised by this or why the outrage is restricted to only Google Home. Google employees and contractors are listening, viewing, and reading stuff from time to time in order to provide labels to their deep learning systems. Moreover, you've consented to this when you created your account or in some cases just used their services without an account. You can't really have useful machine learning without lots of annotated data quite yet, and Google prides itself on useful machine learning.
