Ways to Protect Your Privacy from Amazon Echo


KOMO 4 News (May 27, 2018)  provided tips that can help you protect your privacy when using voice controlled devices, like Amazon Echo. The article states "There's no way to eliminate these sorts of privacy risks short of unplugging entirely. But you can minimize the odds of unpleasant privacy surprises with these tips:

— KILL THE MIC
— LIMIT THE MIC
— ABOUT THAT CAMERA
— BLOCK THE SIGNALS
— BE INFORMED

Of course, the safest approach is not to buy a new gadget in the first place. That might not be practical for smartphones these days, but do you really need a smart speaker or a television set that's connected to the internet?"
