          Because it’s all generated, encrypted, and stored on device.

          Unless you have some evidence that they’re lying about out their data security, in which case you should probably sue about it and get rich as fuck.

          What steps do you, personally, take to protect yourself against that from literally any device you use that has an internet connection?

          Just… stop. Clearly 99% of all smart devices aren’t marketed to you. The rest of us will enjoy our devices and you can be that one guy in the corner of the room saying “they don’t know that I actually have privacy”
