All machines, from the humblest kiosk to the grandest Titan, embody the spirit of the Machine God. Each echo, each sound, each whisper they utter, is a testament to the sacred union between Man and Machine.
Except for printers, which bridge the gap between the machine world and ours. There is no force that can govern their domain.

Real answer: they are always listening, but they are supposed to use a separate bit of code to listen for activation keywords that can run locally, so they aren’t just constantly streaming audio data to someone’s servers. In reality, there are plenty of false positives and you never know if it’s listening or not.

Do you have a source? That’s a bold claim and is something that would be easily detectable with a signal sniffer if it were true.
in fact, they use separate low power hardware with the only purpose of listening to the “hotwords” needed to wake up the main app. that’s one of the reasons why on certain older phones you cannot activate google assistant while the screen is off.
while the screen is on? all bets are off, but they probably wouldn’t want to waste battery time when a lower powered option is available.

Google makes you say “Hey Google” three times so they can train their seperaten hey Google detection model. So if you wanna believe the big cooperations, yes, it’s totally safe cuz it’s different code.

Do you want them to go all Skynet? Because this is how you get them to go all Skynet.
Please place the item in the bagging area
Real talk I love chatting with the cashier and getting my groceries bagged. I make small talk and ask them how they’re doing. It’s a small opportunity to practice social skills and be friendly. On the other hand automated checkouts replace that familiar face with a sinister machine that makes you do the job of the cashier for zero pay and yells at you when you take too long or do something wrong or put 0.000001 pounds on the checkout scale. Steal from automated checkouts whenever you think you can get away with it.
SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU STUPID MACHINE JOB-REPLACING PIECE OF SHIT I HATE AUTOMATED CHECKOUTS SO FUCKING MUCH
