Someone blew my mind about this. Your phone Alexa etc is not listening to you. Full stop. They just aren’t.
That’s very Orwellian of you.just don't do shady shit.
idk.... how about the law?
They listen when you’re specifically talking to your Alexa, but they don’t start listening until you say “Alexa”. Which is what people think is happening.
some apps like google will have your search history follow on whatever device you log in on...I'd suggest for a "tracking free" experience to try something like DuckDuckGo for a search engine. It can be annoying to NOT have historical search (you have to type in again and again for maybe some search you do often) but that is the price for not "holding" your info...What I'm still trying to figure out tho... Is my search history will show on my wife's apps. She'll be like, you were looking up tires today huh. So I'm not sure how that's happening. I've tried looking, and she's not signed in on any of my accounts. But we do share a pixel book. But with each our own accounts. Unless the pixel book shares it's cookie repository? But I figured that'd be separate.
I look at it as an easy way for me to drop hints of what I want for my birthday or Christmas.
well, actually they are always listening, and act when they "think" they hear you say "Alexa", but can be activated otherwise. Plus many people add 'skills' to their Alexa and have no idea that these can (and often do) violate their privacy. See article below...
No.....because you still have the premise there is equal justice under the law. Depending WHO you are, you can steal and not be arrested, you can travel while others can’t travel...
Insurance companies can't deny your claim because you were negligent. In literally every accident, someone was negligent. Even if you were cited for wreckless driving, your insurance would still pay the claim.
