Amazon Echo Dot for kids?
I got an e-mail from Mozilla to put pressure on Amazon to say what they do with the data they collect from children.
How about educating parents as to why the original Dot is a bad idea, and why this is even worse. These children are defenseless in a #surveillance society without the help of their guardians---having every aspect of their being dissected and analyzed before they even know what is happening or that they should care. By the time they have grown and maybe _do_ care, it is already far too late; they are already compromised. Most of the things learned about children won't change into adulthood. And further, Amazon will help to shape what these children become based on how they interact with Alexa, whether they intend to or not.

I just saw this; wtf:
https://www.aldi.co.uk/reka-decorative-santa-cam/p/080878180257400
This is not okay; this teaches children that surveillance is okay in even the most intimate places---that inescapable surveillance is okay.
A similar argument can be applied to Elf on the Shelf, though this product is more blatant.

Help us crowdsource our surveillance map effort and learn how to add cameras and other surveillance devices to OpenStreetMap. We’ll also show you how to upload photos to Wikimedia Commons so that they can be added to points on the map, as well as how to strip metadata from photos (EXIF data).
