Advertising is a weapon. A weapon wielded by corporations to manipulate you into purchasing what they want you to purchase and they do not have your best interest in mind.
Data mining, via social media, browsing history or listening to you via things like Alexa is the whetstone that sharpens that weapon.

It's not a case of it. Might be listening in the background. It is listening in the background. I don't know how many times I've been sitting in my house watching TV not talking to it when it says I don't understand or something to that effect. It is always listening

Who cares Android phones eavesdrop on you all the time: even denying microphone-access to all apps will get you targeted ads about what you said to a friend 20 minutes ago. It's a disgrace this is allowed to happen (in the EU) it makes pretty much all privacy laws useless.

And of course this comes at a time when the U. S. has the most authoritarian government it’s had in over a century, which, not coincidentally, has been completely ingratiated with the biggest names in tech.
Orwell would be losing his mind.

I support people’s right to privacy regardless if they use this device, but can someone please explain why people even use it Unless you have some sort of disability that hinders your ability to do these tasks, it just seems so ridiculous
reply

One word. Smart-Phone. Already hears everything you say all the time and follows you everywhere it goes. Who knows what the device collects and send back to its manufacturer and you are worried about Alexa Hahahahaha

If your DOCTOR who’s sworn to uphold a legally binding confidentiality clause that would cripple them professionally if they broke it, is also mandated by law to BREAK IT FOR INSURANCE COMPANIES. Alexa will too.

Oh yeah, at least 3 times a day I activate Alexa and then READ OUT MY CREDIT CARD NUMBER.
This video is alarmist drivel.

What's a good alternative product that still offers this privacy Would be good to offer viewers what they should use instead

So that's how God will get their information used during Judgement Day
Jokes aside, I agree 100% with what was said.
