There are legally recognized expectations of privacy that have been dealt with for long before the Internet was a thing. Things like, if you keep a document in a box under your bed at home, you have a reasonable expectation of privacy. If you leave it out during a dinner party, not so much. I remember discussing that stuff with one of the lawyers at a health insurance company I worked for in the '90s.
(My example above was just an off the cuff example of the kind of thing I meant, I really have no idea if it's strictly accurate. My convo with the lawyer had to do with privacy of medical info, and visitors looking in your medicine cabinet, but I don't remember the specifics.)
BTW, on another topic, FWIW, which is very little, I spent some time over the last few weeks saying stuff like "Hummel figurines" and "ceramic collectables" in earshot of my phone and my Echos.
So far, no ads or surfaced content regarding knick-knacks of any kind. I'm actually kind of relieved.
