Do you inform visitors that you have smart devices when they visit your home?

Lisa Miles
Reading this really interesting article on the BBC website where Rick Osterloh from Google suggests that visitors should have the right to know that smart devices (Alexa, Google Assistant, Smart Security Cameras etc) are present and in use before entering your home.

So this got me thinking... I do have Alexa enabled speakers but I've never thought to inform any visitors. Do we need to though? Has it got to the point where so many of us have these types of devices in our homes that it's a given that they're there? What happens if someone objects?

What do you think?

    That's right, so you have to constantly be in focus and learn (of course with you). I come from automotive engineering and am constantly in the race for technology
