We have Alexa. Every once in a while, the wife and I will be discussing a certain subject and the next thing I know there are ad’s for it on my computer. Coincidence? I think not.
How prescient! I just had this conversation with my daughter yesterday. In 2008 she came home from high school and said our phones were listening to us. I asked her why she thought anyone would listen to average people’s conversations. About 10 years ago I realized she was right! This is not new.
If it’s not Alexa spying on me it’s Siri. On occasion my Apple Watch starts talking hearing my conversation. Just wait until AI takes over and suddenly Skynet becomes very real along with Hal
It does monitor for certain keywords, that’s how it knows to answer when you say “hey Google” We have had incidents where we are discussing some item we need. Then later we miraculously start receiving ads for that item.

I looked her dead in the eye and said, “the decepticons”.
She laughed, I laughed, the toaster laughed, I shot the toaster, it was a good time.

Somebody once told me that the government could spy on me through my cell phone. So every once in a while I pick it up and ask: “Are you bored yet?”

It’s not spying on you… It’s just selling your location and browsing preferences to retailers.
Not the same at all.
Well… maybe.

Trust me … It’s not spying … It’s only looking out for your welfare.
Your cell phone company cares about you.
Your government only cares about you.
