Do you have a smart phone? It's not any different.

Edit: But it also constantly tracks your location and has a built in camera.

Smart phones don't transmit voice data back to third parties, nor do they transmit photos taken in the native camera apps, so it is different

Has there ever been a documented case of a smart phone randomly burst out in creepy laughter or sending private conversations to random contacts?

Even if it was exactly the same (which it isn't), why mke the problem even worse?
