Be aware, your devices are sharing a lot of data and not just with you but about you.
My son is an electrical engineer for a large tech company. He works on hardware for devices they call "wearables", which can include rings, bracelets, glasses, etc. that monitor a host of health and user data and interests the owner may select. He got into the field having worked with Apple on the iPhone and then was hired away. He bemoans the marginal designs and premature product launches with what he considers substandard gear compared to the quality and security standards he learned at Apple. I asked him why he thought that was and he said it is very simple. The usability of the device for the owner is not most tech companies top priority, getting the data the device collects is. This is especially true of companies that are really software companies as what they seek is data that they then can sell to advertisers and others that want a fine bead on what people are doing, interested in and willing to pay attention to or money for. And the next generation idea is to have these devices monitor not only things like heart rate and what you want to watch or listen to or are querying, but what you are actually seeing and saying. The selling point, in conjunction with AI, is that you can have your whole day watched and listened to and then you can get a summary of every event and interaction you had that day. Having worked in a fast paced environment where there were lots of meetings and side bar conversations that I had a hard time remembering the the next day, this would have been very tempting in my working life. But imagine the data being collected for Big Data...or Big Brother.
His company has just instituted an AI system that will monitor all company email and assemble summaries and stats of specific subjects. The stated reason is that this will help workers and managers have a clear glimpse of what the work flow is and what projects, issues, etc. are eating up what percentage of the workday that day, week, month and year. Really glad my work life is behind me.

People are addicted to screens, gadgets, keyboards, etc. Manufacturers made sure of that. Trying to pry these "devices" from their cold, dead hands will never happen. Have you seen the lines outside of an Apple store every time they launch a new version of their portable gold mines?
The world, as we once knew it, is no more, and there's absolutely nothing that will change that. Addiction is a terrible thing.
