WTF, Amazon?!?!

So I logged into my Amazon account this evening to order some razor blades and noticed that in my product browsing history is the Ravens/Cowboys game.

Why is that odd?

Because I didn't watch it on Amazon Prime. I didn't watch it via any streaming service. I didn't watch it on a smart TV, I didn't even watch it on a connected device.

I watched it OTA on a regular TV. I know those stupid smart home devices can hear you when you say their name and I'm sure they listen to my conversations on occasion but are they listening to what I'm ****ing watching on TV?

This was done maybe 3 years ago? I lose track of time. But an engineer and I did the tests. I would have to see if he kept the wireshark files from then, but it was interesting.

This is why I refuse to have and Echo, google home or any of those devices that are always listening. My phone and computer track me more than enough. Don;t need some stupid hockey puck listening to every conversation as well.

I don't have one in my house because last summer we visited some friends/family in Houston and we took our heathen with us.

Within 10 minutes of discovering they had an echo, he somehow got to to say "poop" on a monotone, never ending repeat.

You’ll start getting targeted ads for bicep pills and Cornhusker gear.

If it could, it would, but the capabilities for on-device voice recognition are not up to par yet. It's getting close though. The magic for the smart home devices is that they send your voice to a massive server farm to be processed and recognized. It's not cost effective to do that full-time so that they can serve you an advertisement.

Your ISP tracks data usage and trends. They know the sites you visit and can fingerprint your browsing activity, shows you watch (if you have video service), and calls you make (if on their cell or home phone plan). Your ISP may provide this to 3rd parties for analysis. Far more likely is that you have cookies that are happily spilling your secrets. There are many tricks to get information from you without having to resort to voice recognition.
