My MIL and FIL both have an echo. MIL also has internet connected cameras now at her home. For the life of me I don't understand why.

How did we even get here? My dad asked me to get one of those new iPhones with facial recognition and I just don't see that happening. At what point do the minimal ease of use gains come with redline considerations that shouldn't be crossed?

Side note: your iPhone spies on you in weirder ways each iOS update. Start typing keywords in your photo search bar and see all the weird shit that comes up.
