When I setup pihole, the google home speakers I had were making dns requests something like 20k times a day. More than pretty much every other device on my network. I removed them all after that.

I took mine out when I discovered from the log that it would randomly cause massive deauth and noise on my wireless network. All my stability issues vanished since.

Seeing comments from people that have one of those on lemmy reminds me that not everyone here is a tech-savvy person and/or knows/cares about privacy.
