Hmmm... Or maybe people just like making calls easily man. Not everything is an ideology war.
privacy is about making effort to protect it. With your logic you should just use google chrome browser and be signed in to google because it makes an easier experience. Then install alexa in your home and make it a smart home, it also makes life easier.
Not addressing your main points. Just wanted to point out you can have a smart home with purely local devices. No cloud.
Privacy is about being comfortable.
