"Hmm, kind of, but would you buy a door with a lock that worked with any key, or a car that just started when someone got into it?"

I used to have a car with doors like that, a MkII Ford Escort. Could be opened with any Ford key of the era. And the key would start it, same as mine would start other Fords.

"Google need to roll out a voice filter so that these things respond to recognised users and not everyone within earshot. (Or just get rid of the creepy listening crap.

Stop the Google App. Works for me.
