Moving into the house - furniture, moving, setting up

Alex, I deselected Siri, not activated it. I hope that means peace. I also find it somehow, possibly due to my age, strange to talk to a device. No, I don’t wear a tin foil hat. I do shop via Amazon or Ebay. I also use WhatsApp, but not [fatzbuch], friend is a word too meaningful for me to spoil it like that. No Twitter, because I am more nuanced than Trump. I know Amazon and co. track my shopping behavior, Google my search queries to push me to buy. But I can’t live with a company eavesdropping on my wife and me. As a liberal person, I’m certainly no technophobe or granola prophet, but data privacy definitely matters to me. Karsten

What do you actually think your smartphones do all day with their microphones?

If you're going for tinfoil hat, then please think it through completely.

(but yes, Alexas do listen and store data, in the USA the data has already been used by courts)

Siri has been off from the start. I don't use the microphone. Shopping behavior: well, I find the ads currently super interesting [emoji12] - exactly tailored to me.

I avoid aluminum as much as possible. And everyone can know that my shampoo is now vegan.
So I do hope that the ads will soon offer me a good face cream.

Oh, shampoo vegan? Do you eat it? Does it taste good?

Karsten: no animal testing, no animal ingredients.
No plastic particles in it and no mineral oils.
Shampoo is a placeholder for several things... but I don't have to convince anyone here.

But I can't live with it if a company is interrogating my wife and me.

The question that will probably shape the coming years. Currently reading Ranga's new book "Next Exit Future". So far very exciting. I wonder if the next generation is really bothered by it anymore. They grow up with companies constantly spoon-feeding them everything while spying on them. Is it really a problem? How terrible is it if Google knows my clothing size? Mh. I don't know.

Without plastic particles in it

I think that's good! +1 Sonos has questionable privacy policies, which is one of the reasons why I don't let them into my home. I didn't like Bose visually or tactilely; I had also looked at it just before New Year's Eve in Media Markt. Yamaha would have been interesting too, but the Raumfeld is somehow working now, so I decided on that and have now equipped three rooms with it .
