It's only anecdotal, but I have Google speakers all over the house (I have six) and I find Google displaying ads and articles related to stuff that I was talking about, but not talking to the speakers about.
I love the convenience of the speakers and it's part of the bargain. But any argument that Google isn't listening to all conversations in range and using them for marketing is absolute bullshit.
And I'm a Google fan. Aside from my six speakers, I have a Pixel phone and my phone company is Google-Fi, so I'm not trying to smear them.
