    One database contains transcriptions of all 31,082 interactions my family has had with the virtual assistant Alexa. Audio clips of the recordings are also provided.

    I would never have that in my home tbh.

    FWIW I think Google is far far far worse! The **** we allow that to access is unreal.

    Once we've gone cashless, there will be no point anymore having different currencies. I'm against a cashless society, but it will make no difference to the younger generations that are born into it.

    Amazon is the greatest business idea in history and it will only ever get bigger.

    Unless you stop using the internet then they can track what you like and do anyway so why miss out on some good tech?
