Privacy regarding Bose SoundTouch

[guohua]

I just thought that this raised some interesting privacy questions, regarding speakers, which are an output device, although now with technology they have become bi-directional.

And the responses of @guohua and @senona are both what most people feel, as I posted in another forum, ie all the big companies are doing it, so it is ok, that is how it is.  

This passive giving up of freedom and privacy is something that the poster in the linked article is questioning, and is asking about where his data is stored - a fair enough question regarding the issues of illegal downloading, prosecution etc, as that may change from one country to another. 

Sadly this is the norm, and people just shrug their shoulders.

I don't really understand why more people don't feel as you do.
I think they've been conditioned to believe the Government will Protect Them!    Sheeple Are Stupid and Gullible
