    Be advised that anything like this can record everything you say around it and can be stored on a server. Anything like this can also be hacked to listen in on anything you say, just like smartphones.

    If someone kills you it'll be asked to testify in court too.

    That had me laughing out loud, for real, not just on the internet.

    You know, this is a really cool piece of tech, but there ARE things that concern me about it, which is why I will never have one of these in my house. Not only can you ask it questions and get it to play music (basically, it's just a mini computer with voice recognition), but it will record EVERYTHING that is within audible distance. Matter of fact, there was a recent murder case where there was one of these in the room where the killing occurred, and the police are now getting a subpoena so that they can replay what happened to find out who killed the person.

    This sounds a bit paranoid to me.

    Ask it to tell you a story, then sing a song, both of these are quite amusing.

    Unless you buy a Vizio smart TV, their default setting is "monitor", and they do.
