Remember that verbal morality bot that gave you red and white tickets for saying naughty words in Demolition Man?

What if Alexa did that.

What would the penalty be for the hard R n-word?
10 years to life in prison?

What about a husband yelling, "You bitch!" at his wife?
1 year hard labor?

I'm just throwing stuff out here.
Bad idea? This would help stop racism right?

They would just make new slurs faster than they could flag them as racist.

Personally, if Alexa really is listening, then I'm beyond fucked. She's heard way too much hentai for one lifetime. I can only hope my cellmate is a kind natured gentleman. Maybe then he will regale me soft whispers of his storied past while we spoon on the top bunk girded by rays of moonlight shining through the barred window...

I'm not a neet like you and your friends. I'm at work 90% of the time I come here. I likely make 3 times you do in a year. Stop trying to bring people down with your negativity.

Or maybe I should use your tired ass line "Don't tell me what to do."

Well, I lose track anyway. I rarely come here anymore. I'm ashamed to admit the people on this site corrupt my attitude and make me come off impolite sometimes.

I think that's my queue. I'm too preoccupied to write longer. Now in really have to work.

I doubt mind anyone's politics in the end. As long as they believe in freedom I suppose.

Yeah, Alexa and the like are already recording everything they hear and sending it to Amazon/Google et al, plus pretty much any Internet-connected device is collecting every bit of data it physically can. The privacy violation's already there, it's just a question of whether or not they use that data to infringe on any other rights.

I'm pretty sure it's not a crime to simply say slurs; it's just (possibly) a crime to say them to other people in a threatening way. I don't see how Alexa could report only that.

If Alexa does save everything you say, its recordings could be used as evidence if someone accuses you of saying slurs to them, but I assume the police would need a warrant to listen to it.

Racism is bad but this would be an invasion of privacy. Besides, people that use those slurs so common in their home will be promptly punished when they cant help themselves from saying it in public.

No. Thats not a privacy violation. Because youre agreeing to it when you buy and install them.

The privacy violation is sending it to the police.

Thats why so many criminals get arrested after talking out their plans around said devices.....

This shit tc is talking about actually involves people getting in trouble because of said devices which is probably when regular people would start to care about devices listening to them.

You do realize thats not what Im talking about, right? Oh of course not. You thought to ask that asinine question.

I'm 2019, most people absolutely to have a smartphone for work or for various other reasons. So even though you're technically consenting when you buy one, they know that they have you bent over a barrel. I can't believe how many will defend blatant spying on you in your own home from corporate entities that know you have no choice but to buy their device. We've been warned about this very thing for centuries. We're just way fucking dumber than our ancestors I guess

I said them listening (as part of their function) wasn't a violation. I guess I should have spelled it out, that sending it to the police (or in extension any 3rd party or violating their own terms of service and keeping it themselves) is a violation.

You dont have to spell anything out. I understand what you're saying. I'm just saying they're doing things to invade your privacy without your consent
