Just had a very weird conversation with someone discussing an open source voice assistant, I asked about its privacy and they blocked me. This isn't very reassuring.
Be really careful with voice assistants. As far as I know, all of them rely on sending your data to the manufacturer's server.
Open source alone won't protect you. Open source tells you what the software does, but if it does bad stuff you need to act on that information to protect yourself.
If I could I'd vote for such a candidate! Refreshing to say the least!

"Indian foreign minister reminded Europeans that their problems are not the problems of the whole world.
▪️The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was charged with buying Russian oil, to which he replied: **“We do not send anyone to dig Russian oil. We are simply looking for the best deal on the market. I wouldn't mix it with politics."**
▪️ “It is time for Europe to abandon the attitude: “My problems are the problems of the whole world, and the problems of the whole world are not my problems. If you are in trouble, then you are in trouble, and if I am in trouble, then we are in trouble,” the Foreign Minister also said."
Not the most recent article on the topic--but still a good reminder of the power we now have at hand...
...for good or evil!
