So not only can they listen to what’s going on (“Hey Alexa, plug your ears!”), they can look too. And move around to poke into things. Great. I’d love to see a writeup on the security of these things.

I don’t own any smart speakers and don’t use Siri either. I am not even a fan of Face ID and wish Apple would return to touch ID for their pro devices (so I can just cam jammers like I do on my MBP and Monitor).

Pulseaudio is the backend of my networked speakers, lol.
