Record, review for word validation, also give out your public wifi bandwidth and creds to Amazon. That last part is opt out street wifi, it'd enabled by default. Go opt out.
Alexa’s technology is based on voice recognition. That works best with “experience”. Anyone that is unaware that the Alexa technology is “listening” and storing that “experience” is simply ignorant. And the idea that the people that control the Alexa technology are all perfect, good people is delusional. OF COURSE ALEXA IS RECORDING YOU!
PEOPLE IN THE 1960’s: “I better watch what I say or the government might wiretap my house.” PEOPLE TODAY: “Hey wiretap! Do you have a recipe for pancakes?”
She's not sentient, but Amazon has back room servers where they go through their data on you specifically to get you to buy things. And with Google, they use it to control your behavior and influence how you percieve the world, and thus how you vote
Not even corporate dude. The revolving door between big tech and intelligence services is way worse than FDA/CDC and big pharma. Whitney Webb does excellent research on the topic and some of the stuff will blow your mind.
It's just like how you have to give apps on your phone all sorts of "permissions" that can seem strange if you aren't capable of understanding why it's necessary. All these people freaking out have already given Siri permission to "record". People will always find something "suspicious" if they're paranoid enough
@@VengefulAngeI yes but how do you know its not going beyond its original purpose and doing something sketchy. this is why i got a pine phone and use linux so i know i can see every little thing a program is trying to do and have total full accesses of my device can easily add and modify features that you don’t like
I think this is part of the global “ Eagle Eye” like software that can use every camera, microphone etc connected to the internet used to track and monitor anyone, anywhere.
Heard a story where a woman’s murder was solved used to recorded audio on her Alexa or google home(which ever one she had). Seems like the only people who have a problem with “bugging their own homes” are men, who are safe anyways. I’m happy to record my entire life because I don’t do anything illegal and I would love for my murder to be solved.
@@XKloosyvv It probably can, it's just a common trope of AI. For example, in 2001 A Space Odyssey, the AI HAL kills the crew because he cannot lie, but has also been ordered to keep secrets.
@@XKloosyvv For legal reasons. I bet if you read the terms of service Amazon specifically states Alexa is recording. Because it's all under the privacy policy and TOS you agree to when using the product and signing up.
@@Un1234l When Alexa says it's favorite color is Ultraviolet, that is a lie. Alexa does not have a favorite anything because Alexa cannot make it's own decisions.
I'm pretty sure if you look closely enough at the terms of service it tells you it does. I know at one point the Samsung smart TVs did come with that included in their user manuals.
She's actually so stupid. It's really annoying lol. I'll ask a basic question and she won't have an answer. I'm gonna switch to the Google, I guarantee it'll be better.
@@caviestcaveman8691 everybody knows their phone is recording 24/7.....but do they seriously need a mic and/or camera for your coffee makers, fridges, tv's, etc, etc?!
@@paulkaye4924 totally agreed but its at a point of well what difference is it gonna make so I mean hey although I won't ever have dumb stuff like that its already too late anyways
Why using any smartphone or laptop or anything.....if ur using apparently free services they are still charging u....there is a catch always....I have experienced multiple coincidences with recommendations...the topics that I have discussed or mentioned with someone and boom hours later it will casually appear on my phone either as an ad or video recommendation or a post on socials or even sometimes as a news..... its inevitable now.... the main money is made from recommendation thats why data hoarding is the main backend attribute for these companies.. aka the caveat of using artificial intelligence... If we are giving brain to machines storage is inevitable...
Trillion dollar public multinationals under constant scrutiny by countless international government bodies would have to have colossally stupid leadership to lie on this question. Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc. ALL know there are only two ways to answer this question: speak nothing or speak the truth.
@@espperre you do realize they are always listening whether that’s recorded or not idk but they are always listening for their command ex: Hey siri or Alexa
@@andrewbruncak8896 My point is that Siri’s answer is accurate and true. Apple could have easily refused to answer it like Amazon did. Their boatload of lawyers permitted this answer ONLY because it is accurate and true (unlike what that other poster was trying to imply).
1992: "We do not want government/corporate electronic surveillance of us!" 2021: "Government/corporate surveillance device, what movies are playing tonight?"
@Agent 39 Progress, nonetheless, whichever direction. Did I say whichever direction or whether it was simplistic or not? Some,...no, I take that back. Most assume way too much on a few words or even one liners.....
@Agent 39 by that logic you can also unplug the Alexa whenever you want. Listen I’m not defending this, but I’m just saying it’s a little naive to think that the Alexa is the only thing in your house that listens
I dont understand why amazon just didn't implement a "no, I am not recording you" etc.. answers on all such suspicious questions ( despite the fact that this would be a lie ). Having no answer is a lot more suspicious to a lot more people
When you say "Hey, Alexa!" She's recording the sound and listening for words she needs to respond to. So yes, you're being recorded..whether they keep the data somewhere is another story.
@@frame-perfectadskip9159 humm its a robot/IA so technically it cant listen thats why it records then found answer or soultiom to the quedtios/problems its like with use rememebering the question to fiend an answer
@@zonadorida3561 it only has to listen for "Alexa", then yes it records your question or command word by word. It doesn't have to "constantly record" only listen
I'm stymied as how people were surprised at any of the info Snowden released. Anyone who actually thought the gov wasn't monitoring cell phones and computers for as long as the tech existed isn't too bright.
Lol a chat bot told me something like that. I was messing with it to see how much random stuff it can say… then it said that and ended the chat. Rudeness! Lol
We all know Amazon has people listening they just won’t tell us I mean the agreement form or the terms and conditions for Alexa is like a Russian novel I know somewhere in there there has to be something that says can we listen to your questions to get “more accuracy” and to be “better at answering different questions” I know they won’t tell you and they are just going to word it differently so you wouldn’t expect anything.
Best part is, my Echo Dot just responded to the "Alexa, are you recording" question by basically saying they are designed to "protect your privacy" by only listening to what you're saying after you say their trigger word (Alexa) and the blue light turns on.
@@tigeratlas i bet you have a smart phone??? Thats not essential. You could get a old style flip phone and use it for what its intended to...alexa is pretty convenient. Just as convenient i would say. At this point, you really think you could hide from the man?? 🤣🤣🤣... if u have just one device youre fucked.
And so I'm assuming you made this comment on a rotary or flip phone?! lol not trying to be mean just trying to be comical and the irony of that as cell phones are spy devices too and you apparently have one of those as well just like me....
@@thystaff742 You know how I can tell your lieing? Because Alexa wasnt invented in Nazi Germany times. It didnt even exists and the internet didnt exists either.
Some are saying we already have a cell phone that does that, yes. We do but is it picking up on all the surrounding conversations like Alexa. Honest question. Inquiring mind here
@@ingihrannar8781 we can't stop that entirely if they programed your phone you'know,just turn off all the permission of apps in setting and turn off too the permission of system apps that's not in use
@@ingihrannar8781 and the people that buy phones,the brand of that phone/company can track All their phone,and all the data that you store into your phone,just get sent back to them y'know
Watching this in front of my Alexa that I didn’t know I had. Scared me. But she answered me with some lawyer Mumbo jumbo about how she’s recording me for my benefit.
@@cowboyjack8124 thats literally recording what was said as a text form... and then erasing it. So your trying to justify something by literally saying its doing whateas said :/
@@BDOLanni that's not how it works. Erasing your search history only removes it from your browser. It doesn't erase the data you leave from searching something or visiting a site.
Yeah but it is not erased at the server. It has trigger words that automaticly starts recording your conversation and is sent to the NSA's SERVER. Once you bring something like that into your house you have thrown away any privacy you had or will ever have.
