This is exactly why I don't do apps. Not even the grocery store ones. I will go ahead and pay the non sale price, thank you. They are all doing it. When I looked into streaming about a year and a half ago, I finally settled for Roku, as it was the only device I could find that didn't insist I have a microphone in the remote. I can't believe so many people don't care that devices are listening to them in their homes 24/7.
