I wouldn't trust Amazon or any other tech giant with data about my emotions, that information is more personal to me than the contents of my day to day conversations or any other biometrics they might be scraping. What an unimaginable panopticon we are entering into. But in a dream world, I would love a device that could help me map out my emotional state over time. My emotional health is a huge component to my well being. I currently manually keep an offline journal of my mood daily and use it to better understand myself, offloading that to a passive monitor would be great.

There may still be a way to reap benefits from this device without sharing any data with Amazon. If I were to use this, I would use an older phone that would: 1. Only download the app necessary for using this device 2. Only provide Bluetooth connectivity. I would not use a SIM or connect to any wifi networks

  It requires a subscription. You can't keep it offline forever. Some features send data to Amazon for processing.
