    My general rule is: “if they have data they can sell, sooner or later they will.”

    There are very few corporations that have proved me wrong.

    As someone who listens to the earnings calls, the shareholders are forcing changes on the company and it is showing as disregard for their customers.

        Well in a away it is being gutted from outside. These “shareholders” are just bad faith actors extracting short term value.

        Management is colluding tho, if it was not outright prepositioned for this play.

    We’re a Sonos family. Listening to Sonos right now as a matter of fact. But this really bugs me. I don’t allow voices control in my home so was interested when Sonos brought out their own version. I’ve contemplated rolling it out, but now likely won’t.

      I just sent them a note along with my CCPA opt out request saying how I could no longer recommend their products unless they revert their practices.

      And then I followed it up by telling all my family not to buy their stuff. Gotta at least do something about this BS.

    I sold all my Sonos speakers after the app release debacle. I think I am getting out at the right time.
