Perhaps it popped because of devices from Google, Amazon, Apple, Sonos, etc. that surveil everything you say in their presence. My houses are fairly automated, but I have excluded any device with a microphone.

Not my Sonos setup doesn't, have had it for close to a decade now. Would replace it with brand new Sonos gear if I could.

Also, wouldn't be hard to put in a solution to block that type of traffic over the mic.

Sonos updated its policies a.coupme years back to allow selling customer data.

Also the devices don't fucking work and all require their own dumb app most of the time.
