Right. I would never use a corporate data collection device in any of my systems. I have never plugged in a Google home or Alexa device in my house and I never will. That people are not only enthusiastically willing to use these products, but also oblivious or unconcerned with their every conversation or voice prompt being recorded and mined is absolutely bewildering to me.
I know some people like the whole voice command thing but I'm cool to do a little more upfront to make my systems just be smart enough to know when I need X, Y, or Z to happen.
Thanks for your input. These are very valid points.
