Turns out hardware kills switches are only as good as the manufacturer’s trust value. Also, Librem and pinephone aren’t good enough quality for daily drivers yet. Maybe someday.
Also, it’s the idea of all the listening devices that “bugs” me (haha). Truly, if Apple/Google/Samsung wants to listen to me watch TV and type on my computer, hope they have fun :) But if I had a way to block that, just like I have uBlock Origin/NoScript/etc to block ads/spyware/etc? I’d do it in a heartbeat, just on principle.
