Otherwise living in paranoid distrust of your devices can only lead to needless stress. The only other ways are to not have a connected device with a microphone in your life at all, or to conduct daily reviews of the code line by line to ensure yourself that your vendor hasn't turned evil or that some third party hasn't hacked the code.
It's not paranoia; I'm not happy to any activity on the tablet suddenly be interrupted when the blue light appears. Would you be happy to have your Internet browser repeatedly shut down for some unknown reason, on any device? Or to have to keep restarting your TV?
