My roommate bought a voice "assistant" pod and an internet connected microwave and doesn't understand why I'm so annoyed.

I don't want my fucking microwave listening to what I'm saying. My desktop doesn't even have a microphone connected to it unless I'm using it.

Then they said that if I'm just being paranoid that having the voice connected stuff would help, because I would see that no one was going to break down the door.

Fundamentally missing the issue of why I don't want them
