I like it, but then again I'm 35.

It may listen to everything, but it doesn't transmit and store everything. Without saying the keyword "Alexa", it doesn't pay attention to what you are saying.

Nobody is forcing anyone to own a smart phone or an Alexa enabled car, so what's not to like about this?

My neighbors already start their extremely loud truck in the morning and let it "warm" for 10 minutes every day, even in the summer. The type of people that want to warm up their cars are already doing it, and those that don't, won't.
