Google's Always Listening: Nest Security System Has A Secret Embedded Microphone
I doubt anyone who is reading this will be shocked by this news, but here we go.
Back in early February, tech giant Google announced that Nest Secure, its home security and alarm system, was now compatible with the company’s Home Assistant voice-control function.
The problem?
Nest users didn’t know a microphone existed on their security device, to begin with.
In order to be compatible with a voice control feature, the device would need to have a microphone.
But Google never mentioned there was a microphone embedded in the device.
