Same sentiment. We all know, that the existing cloud voice recognition features such as Siri, Samsung Smart TVs and upcomoning feature etc etc will eventually hunt some uf us (or all of us) down.

We must build new tech concepts, where privacy and _full_ controll and 100% ownership of our data is controlled by us. From the ground up.

Not sure if SV and HN is the best location to put such a statement - but I do hope I'm not alone in this.

I feel like this is a UX issue that touches on our natural desire to have private and public conversations.

If I'm talking to a device, I consider it to be the same kind of conversation I would have with a close friend. One that I would naturally want to keep between to two of us. You wouldn't find me screaming it for everyone to hear and think about.

Just like gun registration, passports, driver licenses, and cell phones are, huh. That's why we all live in constant fear of our tyrannical overlords.
