Let me guess, defaults to on. Everyone around you is being recorded, always. You're saying the quiet part out loud google. Wonder in how many jurisdictions is this illegal surveillance? Governments like to keep that for themselves, but hey, Amazon Alexa got away with it, sadly.

HELL no.

Is this just the public release of what they've been doing to us for years?

We had Glassholes, and we need something similar for Pixel users going forward. Pix-holes doesn’t quite cut it. Any better suggestions?

Might have to reconsider passing on my Pixel to my partner, pretty sure I don't want that in my house...

I wonder what is capable to recognise as speech. I wonder if it could be possible to covertly inject, at the very least, what would be very uncomfortable notes.

I would love to start hearing about prompt injection on peoples' phones. Sounds like fun.

A new attack surface to defend.

Looks like I, luckily, won't be affected (Pixel 6, NO I don't like upgrading my phones) and this just confirms my stance that my next phone will be a dumb, possibly flip phone
