My favorite was when our google home device would speak up to remind me that the mic was off when I gave it a command. They have a simple on/off switch claiming that it shuts off the mic which I would use. Not sure why they thought that wasn't at all suspicious.

They only very recently patched that so that now it does not respond at all when the mic is switched off.

If they are listening to me and my wife then I want them to hear my words. It's almost like every time I fuck with our google home, google quietly rolls back its propaganda machine. At least for me anyway. My android used to self-populate propaganda on that "swipe-right news/propaganda" feed. It's been blank for about 5 months now and I never changed anything. I sometimes liked to look at it for a good laugh or to verify something as true because of how loudly they were attacking it.

This whole information war can be thrown right back in their faces if you can manage to force their hands by not giving a fuck and mocking them in a far more refined manner than they can. Use their own spy devices against them. Tell google/alexa that they've rolled into a pack of wolves that cannot be intimidated.

Stop giving a fuck if 'ol Sundar (alalalalalala!) Hears you request his public execution. Make them even more afraid. Then deep dick your wife right next to the speaker.
