    I don’t know if the USA currently sells data. It appears to be illegal but the current administration doesn’t always play by the rules.

    Have you ever used a phrase activated voice assistant (hey Google, Alexa, Siri). They are always listening in case you use the phrase. Amazon and Google both admit they record and stores voice data. Google sells ads based on search history.

      So they aren’t, and the devices work exactly as expected by the public. I’m not shocked.
