    All these companies are spying on you. You cannot convince me otherwise. Too many suspect conversations have led to targeted ads and the like that make no sense UNLESS they’re always listening.

      This settlement pretty much confirms it for me. If they did nothing wrong, why didn’t they go all the way with it to prove these devices are not spying on you?
