Google chief: I'd disclose smart speakers before guests enter my home
I was a huge Google Fan but this is becoming lunacy.<p>I understood trading some data and privacy for great search results, maps and free quality email.<p>But people willingly bringing always on listening devices in to their homes (beyond what smartphones are already capable of) I just can&#x27;t comprehend it.<p>Why would people voluntarily do this in exchange for being able to ask for weather, play a playlist, add a todo and a few other parlor tricks.<p>I guess I value my privacy more than others and don&#x27;t like the idea of entities compiling a record of my data that they can sell and market.<p>Imagine how some governments could use this data to limit freedoms, crack down on their opposition.<p>And what about the first data breech that includes transcripts or even audio of all your household conversations&#x2F;activities over the past three years matched up to your email or even address?<p>It just sounds like we are heading down the wrong road.
