Yeah I’m a software engineer for GAFAM, am fully tech literate and I like my Echo Dot. I’m simply not concerned about the privacy issues. I have yet to see evidence that they are using my data in any way that I would object to.

I thought it’d be fun to go back through my two years of recordings to see if it captured any accidental conversations, and it was so boring to go through. They are entirely expected questions like “what time is it” “what’s the weather today” “set a timer” “what’s the cubs score” “when do the cubs play” “how many games back are the cubs” “how many games left are in the cubs season” “Do the cubs even have a chance at this point”
