Who in their right mind would place an Alexa listening device in their home to allow govt access to your conversations?

Who in their right mind would have an iPhone with facial technology that can add your face to a global ID database?

If you think that sort of activity is confined to systems such as Alexa you might want to look around some more. I’ve experienced very interesting ad selections online that could have only come from cell phone conversations, email conversations or even conversations in my house. I used to laugh at people who were so paranoid that they taped over the camera on their monitors. Not anymore. So long as it’s just used for ads I suppose it’s fairly innocuous but it’s intrusive nonetheless and such data will be misused, always is. I’m largely beneath the radar, my personal activities are likely of no interest to anyone other than marketers, but if I were to become noteworthy somehow, I’d imagine that data would come into play.
