Spying on me - Google Account Help. Its all over the media right now that google is spying on people violating peoples privacy they make video's in your home and record conversations, read your emails and sell privacy data to commercial company's.
Your Google Home spends most of its time listening for its wake words, “Hey Google” or “OK Google.” The device then records everything you say after the wake word and sends it to Google's servers for parsing. Google needs to store these recordings temporarily. But Google may be storing what you say forever.
It is found that Google can record the conversations of people who are around the devices. The company quietly records many of the conversations that people have around its products. Google uses it's virtual assistant (Google Assistant) and voice search (Google Voice) applications to record the conversations.
Why, yes, it probably is. When you use your default settings, everything you say may be recorded through your device's onboard microphone. Your phone isn't the only device that's watching and listening to you. The FBI warns hackers can take over your smart TV if you don't secure it.

It's a conspiracy theory with a cult following: phones listen in to conversations to send your targeted ads on Facebook. Over 9,000 apps under scrutiny had permission to access the phone's camera and microphone. The researchers used an automated program to interact with the apps and analysed the traffic generated.
