YES! Mine, too (dumb car and smart wife).
I also don't turn on "location services" on Apple devices because I don't want to be tracked by a
secretive giant private company (or the government, for that matter). I know some people who won't
get an EZPass automatic toll-paying device because they believe it is intrusive government tracking
(I have read news reports where police agencies track people down by tracking their toll device
activity). It's very hard to be anonymous or lay low in today's world. I thnk the reasonable
reaction is be prudent but understand that the price of connectivity is the loss of a certain amount
of privacy and anonymity, and either don't get too stressed out about it or give up the
connectivity.

Those others can be shut off, I think. I don’t use Siri or televisions.
