Germans are told to destroy their Cayla dolls because they're hackable. Can you fucking believe this shit? These dolls record and upload everything your child says to that doll. And the dolls talk back to the child. This is done so that if your lil' princess says, "I want ruby red slippers for xmas." Then mommy will see ruby red slipper ads on facebook.
Also, if your darling lil' princess says, "I wanna burn down a white church." Then the local SWAT team can off her in minutes. Great eh? I feel safer already. But, what if Uncle Pervy hacks into lil' Suzy's Cayla doll to say, "Do you wanna play doctor Suzy?"
Am I going fucking retarded? Do I really want a television and fridge that I can't talk in front of?

It's the same with amazon echo (I think that's what it's called?) or the new google thing. I just can't understand why anybody would want something like that in their home that's listening to everything they're saying

We've had one in our pockets for years. Unless of course you don't use a smart phone.
