Yeah I don't trust those devices at all. I don't know why I would pay for something that gives marketers more access to my life. It really feels Orwellian having a company (both Amazon and Google) that traffics in personal information listening to everything you say in your house. I was miffed today when I saw a story on yahoo about how Fitbit is using big data to learn about people's sleeping schedules. I would have opted out of that if I knew they were collecting that information even if not personally identifiable for their own purposes. But either way I am not getting an Alexa or Google home because I find them extraordinarily creepy!
