Everyone's listening

We have Siri and Alexa in our house, and yesterday they were joined by Google.

For some reason, Google decided to offer my husband one of their Home Mini devices for free, so OK Google, let's see what you've got.

I decided to ask it this morning what the outside temperature was. It told me, and then advised me to say 'Good morning' for a daily summary. Alrighty then, I did so, and it gave me the weather for the day followed by the news.

Next I wanted to ask Alexa the temperature, to see if they concurred. She told me, and then offered to read me the news. Which she has never asked before. So; Alexa is listening to Google....
