@rt-international, keeping in mind that somewhere a real flesh and blood person is hearing whatever you say and do to decide which button to push, what order to take, or even what moan of ecstasy to record for posterity. "Giving up Privacy" is absolutely right. Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos both want the world on 1 common network monitored 24/7 by simply their own companies. Government is using verbal AI for different things, which means NO MORE SECRETS and everyone can potentially be in breach of NDAs... "Alexa, Echo, et al" should all be junked so there won't be any more breaches, personal, private or governmental and no more whispered comments after the private "MOANS".
