Germany just had a sweeping far right election
you can’t say 20% a ‘sweeping’. The situation is worse at other places. And thanks to true multi party democracy, AfD probably won’t be in government anyway.

My ex once got rickrolled in a public bus. I said the song is cool and kept it playing on speakerphone. The whole bus genuinely enjoyed it (people singing along), nobody complained :)

I’m like an atheist monk.
you might be having SzPD. I’m not saying that but you might think about it.
I don’t want to travel because it costs money.
I don’t spend much money on clothing or media and save most of my paycheck.
then why don’t you use some of those to travel? There are ways to travel less expensively. I had a phase like this when I was a college kid and I saved up the small scholarship (much less than an actual job) and travelled, which did something that depression meds couldn’t do then. ymmv though.

Don’t give them idea :)
Yes that’s indeed a possibility.

That’s done locally. You can try training wake word models for any open assistant and see how much computing power it needs for even simple phrase.

It’s well possible and previously tv mic had been used as bugging device. The problem is, way too many security researchers look in system level software of iOS and even other components of the device that such practice will be too risky for apple (same applies for mainstream android products). Also processing realtime audio, finding potentially unrealiable topic from it and doing realtime ad is actually too much work as of today’s tech (might change sooner than you think though).
What, I think, is more practical is to use the whole query after the wake word to show ad, and potentially use other app tracking data, which is way much reliable than voice for targeting purpose. Voice data is useful for bugging purpose, primarily (ab)used by nation states and LE.
I bet in the medical procedure case mentioned in the blog the user searched/talked about that in other apps and average people aren’t good to notice these privacy leaks.
