I wan't to buy it, but I'm too paranoid to have a device in my home that listens to everything that's going on 24/7.

It sucks, because the tech isn't good enough yet. The voice recognition is strictly worse than Google or apple, it only really does two things, tells weather and plays music, if you have music hooked up. It's supposed to be able to Google shit for you, but that works about 30% of the time or less. Still fun to use.

I'd say wait for athe least the next generation, then it might actually be good.

Thanks, anon. Any suggestions for alternatives? I would like to have a voice-controlled smart home. Playing music and controlling other devices is the main reason for me.

I mean if that's all you want to do, Echo will do the job.

Welp, what else is there? I mean I might ask it questions, but If you're saying, its not working properly, then I have my doubts.
