I would argue that they're at step 1, yes, but that step 1 is telling you these manufacturers have no respect for your privacy, period.

Which appears to be true. If these companies respected the privacy of their users, their privacy policies would not contain what they do.

Regardless of current active data collection, I think it’s wise to read these policies as a declaration of intent.
