This is still unthinkable to me. Trading that much privacy for a little bit of convenience? How does it not make you uncomfortable to know that every conversation in your house is live streamed to someone else's computer?
- mlrtime 8mo agoWhat privacy am I giving up? You start with all these judgement questions without explaning.
- Ylpertnodi 8mo agoYour personal privacy.
- mlrtime 8mo agoHow so?
- cjrp 8mo agoAn internet-connected device in your home which is always listening.
- mlrtime 8mo agoLike a phone?
- bandrami 8mo agoYeah I'm definitely in the "I keep my laptop powered down and in a Faraday cage" camp so I guess a lot of these products aren't really aimed at me.
- Noaidi 8mo agoI have a good Faraday bag. When I am chilling and talking with friends I have them power off their phones and put them in the bag. :)
- tokioyoyo 8mo agoHonestly? I don’t care enough about that. I’ve simplified my life to a degree where I’m not depended on anything, nor I get that much ads anywhere. So it’s just a life built around conveniences and focusing on things I care about.
- whilenot-dev 8mo ago> I’m not depended on anything Yet you mention Google and Spotify in one command. Independence seems to be something different for me. Even thinking about tools, maintenance and the repairs over the years... convenience and independence are closely related, and privacy is at least just a welcoming side effect.
- ares623 8mo agoWould it feel any different if your Google Home recordings were streamed to me, an individual, directly?
- whilenot-dev 8mo agoNot even just for my own sake, but for the sake of my guests as well. Unthinkable, because it's highly dystopic. If it wasn't for all that Science Fiction literature and philosophy that warns people about it, the Stasi wasn't too long ago either.
