According to Gizmodo, a study found out that smart speakers might be eavesdropping after being accidentally activated not by users but another source.

This study found the following shows on Netflix to be those that may activate your smart speaker without your command.

Gilmore Girls

Grey’s Anatomy

The L Word

The Office

Greenleaf

Dear White People

Riverdale

Jane the Virgin

Friday Night Tykes

Big Bang Theory

The West Wing

Narcos

The research  mentions that study excludes any instances which a smart speaker is activated by its actual wake word. They used over 120 hours of audio from 12 Netflix series and found that the smart devices were activated between 1.5 and 19 times in a single day.

I guess I’ll have to do some research on my own, who’s down for a binge watch?
