But that sort of explicit "we're recording your voice for verification" warning, yah, ugh. More of a reason to try to do things local as much as possible I guess.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924993310937754220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8049802.post-25909717869096076082018-12-22T20:51:54.228-08:002018-12-22T20:51:54.228-08:00Oh.
