What would be some good #privacy tips to teach parents?
@kakure @theprivacyfoundation
Rather than coming up with new resources, maybe share existing content

from @info_activism
has some good ideas, but I would argue know your audience, and their level of IT knowledge.
As them if they have had conversations then found adverts pop up seeming randomly that are however linked to that conversation.
so talking about say cars and you get a car ad pop up
now get them to think about a very private and persona thing (something you may not want shared) and imagine someone eavesdropping on that conversation.
Perhaps then suggest alternatives / replacements, use duck duck go rather than google for search. could be a good first step.
@kakure I have spoken to people where this has happened so yes, people seem to think it is normal, i wonder if others here have more documented evidence.
@kakure Parents of children called Alaxa are complaining about amazons Alexa devices as when they say their child's name the device wakes up too.
@zleap That's still speculation but it makes a useful bookmark. Thanks!
@kakure Something that needs further.investigation. But yes, most people probably don't notice this happen or don't think about it if it does happen.

Has there been any evidence (stronger than anecdotal) of this actually happening?
