1984, Chapter 3, George Orwell‘Smith!’ screamed the shrewish voice from the telescreen. ‘6079 Smith W.! Yes, YOU! Bend lower, please! You can do better than that. You’re not trying. Lower, please! THAT’S better, comrade. Now stand at ease, the whole squad, and watch me.’
I'm sure she's telling the truth. And I'm equally sure that Kiro7 haven't altered it for effect.
Amazon reported 6 months ago that 20m units had been sold. Even if this story is true, and that there was no human error (unlikely) then it doesn't appear to be a widespread issue.
Hopefully all of our home conversations don't accidently end up in another part of the Amazon cloud system ..

The fact is, the Snoopers Charter has made it possible for Government departments to collect your web browsing history anyhow. GCHQ has access to webcam chats. Apps on phones have access to your mic. The original story is a non story, imo, and acts as a distraction to the big data mining that people really should be concerned about.
