“I bet you use your tv remote?”

Rarely. When I watch anything, it's generally on my computer. I never thought I'd ever get to the place in my life at which technology would have passed me by, but I just have no desire at this point to keep up. That said, I understand the power and attraction of technology.

My TV remote is line of sight IR and with no external connection.

Unlike the Alexis of the world.....

If you want one in your home - good for you.

As for me, I’ll pass.

For fun, try this with your little home spybot
“Alexa - say hello to J edgar will you?”

this becuase the fuzz have openly sued to get the recording form a geographic area. We would they sue to gain access to what supposedly does not exist?

Credit Cards, Internet, Smart Phones, and some observing TVs...

I trust the marketplace more than I trust creeps like Clapper that have undeserving access to the entirety of personal data.

That said, Alexa once activated while my wife and I were having a vigorous dispute nearby. It was quite humorous as we both were instantly tongue-tied — staring at each other in deafening silence...
