Is Alexa spying on you?

In response to the op question. Yes data collection is a thing. Tin hat? No. Careful? Yes. Successful in staying private? In this day and age not a chance. Of course it's a spy in your house, as is the internet, phone, laptop, all your smart crap because the journey to the light switch is just too arduous. It seems the younger you are regarding this, the less concerned you are about it.

it's a trade off really, are you willing to share certain data points about you for the benefit of not having to walk to the light switch? if yes, crack on, if no, okeo, but don't complain when you can't access your bank because "it all needs a smart phone now", because the security provided by two stage authentication is one of those benefits. :)

Pretty much this. But that's a fair too sensible answer. Back to the tin hats, gammon passports and shaking fists at clouds!
