#2 Why, Oh! Why?, would anyone install a 24/7/365 'always ON' listening device in their house controlled by someone else? Madness...

#6 In the late 60's the the science fiction author Mack Reynolds had the dystopian 'Joe Mauser Mercenary' series where society had "share-holders" and common "Citizens". The latter had to carry a government issued communicator in public -- at home it was a common practice to put the ~~listening device~~ communicator in a metal lined Faraday Cage.... Just saying.

#7 What's more dystopian, being required to be monitored or consenting and paying for the monitoring?
