Facebook, Apple, and Google have all admitted to covertly recording, parsing, and even transcribing conversations recorded by phones, home automation devices, and even laptops computers, all in the name of "improving the customer experience". I'm sure many other companies are doing this as well. If you have any electronics in your life (even so called smart TVs), you have no real privacy. The claim that the data they gather is anonymized is pure bullshit as well.
