I'm with DD both philosophically and practically here.
And I think the thread title is pretty close to the mark.
I would be more concerned if someone proved that the devices were listening and collecting data NOT during an interaction, but when they were supposedly "off." I do use physical shutters on my webcams and physical disconnects on my mics when possible. That's about the extent of my privacy paranoia for the stuff I use. Where I have other concerns, I just don't use that stuff.
I did find one part of the article amusing: Amazon's response to the study was basically "Wrong! It's not 30 times higher ad bids...more like 28.5 or so....
