to think Alexa is a creep?

This article raises issues that are just being ignored, why is everything recording us? We get all twisted up with GDPR and ignore the constant surveillance we all keep buying into.

"Why do tech companies want to hold on to information from our homes? Sometimes they do it just because there's little stopping them - and they hope it might be useful in the future."

Even stuff you don't think has the ability to record you is recording you. It's becoming impossible to avoid the internet of things. Shouldn't there be anti creep legislation?

Don’t have one then. I like mine and couldn’t care less that it hears the background of my boring life.

People are fully aware that these devices can record you. I'm not arsed. I find our Alexa useful and don't care that it records my boring conversations.

Just don't get one if you don't want it in your home 🤷‍♀️

Never understood why people would willingly sign themselves up to having one of those surveillance type things in their house.
I mean, I'm seriously boring but it's still so intrusive!
