I’m specifically talking about Amazon Alexa and Google Home devices, not anything else your phone or apps are doing. So the only one of those articles even remotely relevant is the third.
And the third talks about “false wakes” being the cause. Which goes along with what I said before that until it hears the wake word (even if it’s mistaken in doing so), it’s not sending back recordings.
I don’t know. You must be a bot or in some sort of abusive relationship. Why are you desperately taking the side of a corporation who constantly does the wrong thing. Why give them the benefit of the doubt it’s weird?
If they’re not directly storing the entire conversation they’re converting key words to text or entire conversations, why not? If they’re can listen for the 1 word and act on it why wouldn’t they take everything else. Who’s stopping them? I’m going to block because it’s just dumb to trust a corporation so I have no interest in being convinced they are good guys and care about my or your wellbeing.
Wtf is this crap? Just because I’m taking the approach of siding with reality I must be a bit or corporate stooge?
Google and Amazon do enough real things wrong without needing to make up bullshit conspiracy theories. Like Amazon’s abusive labour practices, and…everything about the Audible & Kindle platforms. And Google’s support of the American military industrial complex and shoving AI down everyone’s throats while making their products actively worse.
Just because something is bad, doesn’t mean every single accusation against it is accurate.
The world seems full of people who work as unpaid corporate lawyers. I’ve run into several of these types in person. I imagine that the Venn Diagram of these people and those who snitch on their colleagues is a circle.

Here’s something I quickly looked but I don’t care enough to be honest. They’re doing the wrong thing whether they have been caught yet or not. Look up more yourself if you actually care or don’t if you want to stay asleep. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/blog/amazons-alexa-never-stops-listening-to-you/
