Google says not disclosing microphone in Next was "an error" (1 Viewer)

All of these in home smart devices are scary.  Crazy that people are so quick to put them in their homes.

(as I type this with my smart phone probably recording every word I type and every thing I say)

Pretty much sums it up

The more I learn about Googles intrusion into your privacy the more I stay away from any of their products. They monitor everything and share it all. Steer clear of all this stuff as much as you can.

 
A good rule of thumb when using any device.......someone can hear/see you if they really want to. 
Yep. Just assume someone is watching everything you do all the time and then you can feel less paranoid because your life is pretty boring.

 
Meh.  They can listen in all they want.  All they're going to hear is me talking to my cats, yelling at Chicago place-kickers, Cheap Trick,  and me sobbing quietly into my whisky+Rockstar.

 
It always amazes me how up in arms people get over the "privacy" buzzword.  For people who have this device, how would any of their lives be any different if this hidden microphone was never discovered?  Targeted ads? Oh, the horror!  On a scale of 1 to 10 of things to worry about on a daily basis, this kind of stuff is somewhere between 0 and 1 for me.
