This only affects retards that have that shit in their home anyway though. If you're a reasonably intelligent person, you won't invite Big Brother into your house like a cuck
It would not surprise me one bit if these companies spawned some sort of internal spook/research arm that would do something like this. 'anonymously' of course...

Wouldnt know...dont have either and never will
Came here to post same. 👍
What devices are around you and your family that have internet access and camera/mic?
let me one up this: i insist alex/google thing devices be turned off when i get invited over, otherwise i dont fucking go
I do in home service, same insistence.
The right answer.
Yep, me too.
I bet that thing you are looking at right now has a microphone in it also.
Also worth noting, anything that has a speaker is also a microphone.
I'll take that bet.
Desktop computer
I saw a YouTube video of somebody who managed to get Alexa to say the N-word--whereupon I noticed Alexa is black........
Ok google's been doing it for years
My wife tells Alexa............... Jeff Bezos is an asshole.
What does Alexa say in response?
CHAINA IS ASSHOE!
the better question is why would you let either one into your house
Reminds me I need to leave reviews for that Alexa show with the tv screen.
He thinks they don't? They build transcripts that serve as corpora. Easy to store, easy to search, and easy to examine data from them.

"Oh wait , whats this!?"
Like this wasn't predicted
thats a movie i gotta fucking watch thanks bro
I ask Alexa "Who killed Seth Rich?" Alexa doesn't know
since 19 telephone
Pretty sure it started doing this as soon as it was functional. Part of the design.
you think they arent???
Anyone dumb enough to have one of those things is not going to get any sympathy from me.
negative 1 year is my guess.
They already are building profiles on thought criminals. They know everything.
This is the exact plot from the novel 1984, you have been warned!
This this this this!
Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if they've kept records to use against us at a later date.
Protip. Take those devices and throw them in the trash.
They already do: universal mass collection allows retrospective application of woke law.
Which is why neither are in my house. No smart products indoors.
Fuck spyware.

The only Voice Assistant you should ever even allow in your home is Mycroft. Open Source. Open Hardware.
I would bet it is already creating a catalog of people for future use.
When i find out someone has one of these devices i think a little less of them.
Your phone is already listening to you. And your tv. Don't believe me? Ask google.
