- cptskippy 7y agoWhat terms do I use to find these magical results? If I google "Google Nest Home Mute Hardware disconnect" for example, none of the results on the first page state it is a hardware disconnect. The support.google.com links all use vague language that never explicitly says there's a hardware disconnect. Just that the mute switch causes the microphones to be disabled. Interestingly the last result on first page is this: https://store.google.com/magazine/google_nest_privacy#ada2d2099fe21107 https://store.google.com/magazine/google_nest_privacy#ada2d2... And it's claims are known to be false. > Your device will only send audio to Google if we detect that you or someone in your home is interacting with your Assistant So I'm genuinely curious where all this information about the mute switch being a physical disconnect for the mics exists.
