Nah, I use Siri daily for simple tasks. Turning on lights, setting timers, adding things to my groceries list. She’s simple, but perfectly fine for simple tasks.
Please leave her the fuck alone :’)
Do you really want to give Apple access to your house?
For most people, if they want any kind of home automation then they’d have to trust someone, as most people won’t be able to deploy and maintain their own system. So now you have 2 options (other than just not automating your home)
So would you rather bet on 1 company not being evil, or 2 companies not being evil?
You can automate your house yourself without the need for a big corp to step in and get access to your home.
Can I? Sure. Can the average consumer? Hell no.
Then what about not automating your house?
Sure, that’s an option. And we don’t need central heating, a fireplace worked fine. We didn’t even need to build houses, we were fine living in caves. And who needs fire anyway, raw meat and berries are more than enough.
Make sure you at least have a plumbed toilet if you’re going to be eating raw meat and berries
What’s wrong with shitting in the woods?

Heresy!
The downvotes definitely prove your point
What are they gonna do, turn my lights on? Great prank mr. Tim Apple.
I use Shortcuts to bridge Siri to my Home Assistant setup. Apple doesn’t control my house.
