Which do you use?

Which do you use?

Neither

This is the only correct answer.

Both. One in my wife's room, one in my wife's son's room.

Alexa but only because it was a gift from my parents and don't want to be a dick
They love it, they have 3 of them in their home with smart lightbulbs and all that shit, I rarely use it and the house feels like it's surveiled like in the Soviet days

I wanted to get alexa around christmas when they were 35$ but they were sold out everywhere. Now the price rose to 50-60, so fuck it

Google home mini
It was a Christmas gift
I really like how it works with my vizio m series TV. It can turn that on and use CEC to turn on the receiver, so playing music throughout the house hands free is convenient. I also get the news from it every morning and set timers when cooking

If you use this shit you should kill yourself. Quickly.

Neither you dumb Orwellian soiboi.

>fucking faggot tech no one needs shit like that

Oh Sup Forums, we all know you'll buy in when someone makes one of these on linux that claims to use encryption.

Except I won't.

Everyone who hates is just poor neckbeards running Linux on their old shity desktops and nothing to connect the home Mini or Alexa to. It's great in the middle of the night when I'm fucked up and I don't know what time it is I just ask it what time it is. also it's great for setting alarms finding new music and also a bunch of more things, I have it connected to my fan my lighting my TV and even my thermostat. I recommend the Google one though it's easier to connect and has a better voice

>willfully bugging your home

>and also a bunch of more things

>Hey wiretap, what's the weather like in Cupertino?

>Alexa
>PARTY ON GARTH!

Sorry that I don't have a Loli addiction and even if you don't I don't think the government gives a fuck about your tranny and cuck porn or the arguments you have with your parents. Like serious question what the fuck do u really have to hide no one really gives a shit about you. I could understand if you were important or a large scale drug dealer why you wouldnt get one but let's be serious

Nope, go fuck yourself dumbass

go back to plebbit

I really don't like it when I see targeted ads. At all. Never have, I found even the earliest crude forms of it really creepy. This by itself is plenty of reason to avoid these things, and it's kind of bizarre to me that people get insulting and aggressive when informed that some people don't want them

I'm a middle class white man

The proliferation of these things will strengthen the state that serves my demographic.

See no real reason

I get your point very clearly I just don't like people targeting products based on there biased opinions while it could sway the opinion of people who could benefit from the use of products like these. Thank you for being reasonable.

Really, you could just google everything or use push-to-activate assistants, while not having a microphone actively listening.

I sure do hope neither of you own a smart phone.

Yeah but if you think about it your phone does the same thing "Hey Google or hey Siri". And I bought one of these for my grandma when she loves it she calls me everyday to tell me how much she loves it. All she has is a shity old flip phone.

Well you have to opt-in for hey google and hey siri (I was talking explicitly about push-to-activate)

Get on with the times, grandpa. I have neither, instead I use Smalt™, the world's first smart salt dispenser.

Some forgot to attach an image

Oh you're right I guess that works too

Alexa is less likely to be mining your data for malicious intent than Google Home.

>implying that amazon doesn't like money

Why would I want a personal spy reporting back everything I say to the nsa?

What phone do you have?

> "Commander, he's ordered more Soy"
> "Keep me updated"

Wouldn't shit like this be used for blackmail instead of checking what kind of sushi a weeb is ordering?

Oneplus 5 with lineage without gapps
>implying there are humans listening to you
>implying they don't just log everything so they can filter for stuff later
>implying this shit doesn't get stored for infinity + 1
>implying our current gubmint values won't change ever

See:
Honestly user what shady shit are you up to?

There's literally drug dealers openly advertising over instagram and nearly every member of ISIS tweets their execution videos via a smartphone.

What on earth are you up to?

He must be building weapons of mass destruction in heaven.

Cops come and try ta' snatch my crops
These pigs want to blow my house down
Head underground to the next town
They get mad when they come to raid my pad
And I'm off in the night deuce Cad
Yes I'm the pirate pilot of this ship if I get with the ultraviolet dream
Hide from the red light beam
Now do you believe in the unseen
