” so to better protect yourself.” You mean you have to opt out? That alone should tell you something “ain’t right.”

if you trust the likes of google and amazon you deserve what you get

[ETL]

Seems that way.

Google I can’t stand. They get into everything.

What do they do with it? Share it with the NSA ofcourse.

Ask me to rate the places I have visited or driven past.

[polymuser]

The gadgets don’t collect the data; They’r just a fancy mic and speaker. They merely transmit what they hear and see to the server farms.

There, the farms develop the answers to questions, send the music, etc. and store and analyze everything collected.

And teams of isolated geek SJWs with Starbucks mocha minty latte grandes watch over it all.

>>Speaking of, if you’re in a vacation rental, there’s no guarantee hidden cameras are not in play.

Except it is illegal without disclosure.

Question, how much does it help to “sweep” a room or gas station (pumps) with a cellphone scanning for bluetooth broadcasts?

it's nearly impossible to avoid, but I try. I sure as he!! won't hook up a device made for listening to me.       alexa too, I already feel guilty about shopping at amazon.

NSA certainly doesn’t use it to thwart terrorism. The attacks we’ve seen have been from known wolves who’ve already been reported to the authorities by concerned citizens and family.

The FBI even sat idle and watched as a team of terrorists attempted to storm the “dram Mohammed” cartoon contest in Irving Texas, as if it was permissible to let them take out critics of radical Islam. The event organizers were not informed of the credible threat to their lives.

the fbi was given a heads-up about the boston bombers by the Russians, but they weren't interested.      it obviously isn't their job to keep citizens safe.

[Equine1952]

I recommend you don’t wait for anyone to tell you about a credible threat to your life. Go to class, get a permit to carry a concealed weapon, practice, carry, read the book “Sheep No More”, be vigilant, and suspect everything may be geared to harm you. Situational Awareness is very important for you and those you care about.

[mabarker1]

The damned fbi delivered the shooter !!!

[a fool in paradise]

The FBI wasn’t expecting the art event sponsors having their own armed security on site.

The Orlando shooter had been interviewed by the FIB for making terrorist threats.

I'm seeing a pattern here.
