I don't feel comfortable monitoring what I say in what should be the safest refuge in my life.

Most of my concern comes from who’s behind current solutions. Voice interfaces are the future of computing, but currently are just a gimmick to collect as much data as possible.

I wont have on in my home for several reasons. Security are you home? spam marketing. You said go out for dinner and all these ads pop up on your tv, computer and/or phone.

Our phones, computers and everything else are already picking up this information. I don't have anything to hide.

This type of tax will always be passed on to we consumers. Oregonians already pay an income tax. It's another heavy burden on Oregon consumers that will be passed on to us - the increased costs is nothing but a hidden tax.

This is a sneaky way to get sales tax in place and will add as much as 15% to the consumer's cost for retail purchases.

It's a hand out to the rich who can afford to live here only 200 days out of the year.
