+summary: >
+  I've been talking about smart TVs with other people recently and we all
+  came to the same conclusion: smart TVs may spy on us (like our smartphones do).

+It is not uncommon that Amazon suggests items that I've been talking to other people
+in a room where an Amazon Echo device (an Alexa) was in that room.
+
+Now, I'm not so paranoid that I would remove them instantly because most of the time
+they are out of reach (which is not measured but I think they might not hear me because
+they do not respond to any commands at all when I yell at them) and I do not care that
+much because in the end, I decide by myself -- these suggestions are completely useless
+anyway.
+
+But looking at my local network (LAN), specifically the hosts that send and receive data,
+my TV is usually one of the top 5 devices in regards of data transfers. As this is
+obviosly true for downloaded data, this is also true for uploaded data. Sure, it needs
+to transmit every command taken on the remote control but guess what: I'm not using it
+that much.
