As the technology craze spreads to the festive season and beyond, many people may have been gifted a super-smart speaker this Christmas.
Making everyday tasks easier, an Amazon Echo comes with a smart Alexa feature that can give updates on the weather or news, and play your favourite tunes, reports the Liverpool Echo. However, tech experts have shared their opinion on smart speakers, and revealed that they may be listening more than they should be.
Experts have warned people to keep their Alexa's downstairs before, but Dr Hannah Fry has said that the speaker should be treated like a guest in the home, and kept out of private areas like the bedroom and bathroom.
