It's like somebody dared amazon to put a mic into every new item they sell. The TV remote has a mic. The outlet has a mic. The earbuds have mic(s). and so on.

The TV remote has a mic.
The outlet has a mic.
The earbuds have mic(s).
and so on.
I mean, I get it, they want me to talk to Alexa, so it can figure out how to sell me more junk.
But seriously, I do not understand the desire to be listened to 24/7. I do not want a live mic in my home, nor in my pocket when I run, nor anywhere else it's not necessary.
