Now, why would you need always connected internet and a microphone to control the heat in your home? Was there some way it was done before that wasn't working? Hmmmmm.

I was excited because I thought this article had something to do with nesting eagles but after finding out it's just Google being Google and spying on their customers again, meh.

[DrCaleb]

Oh goodie! Even the smoke detectors in the Nest Security package have microphones in them! I'll bet everyone who had these in their home for the past year would have liked to known that.

Its to hear the screams of the burn victims.

"Hey Google, can you tell Siri to call Alexa and unlock the front door for me?"

As a bonus, the NSA, KGB and Mossad can use them to listen in on your important conversations with your cat.

That's what they would want you to think.

Come to think of it, what the acronym for the Chinese secret police? No one knows! That's how to properly run a 'secret' police.
