gollark: Say you dislike the government or something and say so near your phone. Imagine the Turkish government partnered with Google to datamine the microphone data. Now they know you dislike the government and bad things may happen.
gollark: Besides, they could automatically datamine it.
gollark: I don't know exactly what they could use it for. But it's *there*, it'll probably be stored forever, you can't really revoke your access to it, and it might be going/go eventually to potatOS knows who.
