Query:
My name is Erik Martin and I am a freelance writer for Speech
Technology Magazine (www.speechtechmag.com). I'm looking to
interview voice assistant experts, data security professionals,
artificial intelligence experts, speech technology
professionals, researchers, data scientists, voice-based
information companies, and other related professionals for the
following topic: How companies can better secure voice assistant
data to ensure users feel safe. This story will explore the
different fears consumers have regarding boy spots and voice
assistants and the steps companies can take to overcome these
fears and challenges. Below is a list of questions I'm seeking
answers to for this story. I can only conduct email interviews,
whereby you or your suggested sources type up written responses
to my questions below that I can use as quotes in my story
(that's also often easier and ensures no accidental misquoting).
My deadline for written responses is 3 p.m. Central, Thursday,
February 29, 2024. Please contact me if you'd like to
participate. QUESTIONS 1. Why do many consumers have fears and
concerns about what they tell their voice assistants or what
their voice assistants may hear, especially fears related to
data security, privacy, and intrusion? What's behind these fears
and concerns? 2. Should consumers be less concerned, more
concerned, or as concerned as they are about data
security/safety related to voicebots/voice assistants? Or are
these fears and concerns overrated or unwarranted? Please
explain and provide a few hypothetical or real-world examples to
support your opinion here if possible. 3. What can companies do
to ensure that users/consumers feel safe talking to their voice
assistants and to ensure that the data gathered is protected and
not vulnerable or used irresponsibly? Please provide detailed
tips/recommendations. This is the heart of my story, so please
devote extra attention to your answers here. 4. How else
can/should companies better protect voice assistant data and,
consequently, user privacy? 5. Looking ahead, what needs to
happen for consumers to feel more confident/secure and less
worried about talking to voice assistants? Is this an issue that
will improve in the coming years, or will data and privacy
security related to voicebots always be a major concern among
consumers? 6. Any other tips, thoughts, comments, or ideas
on this topic you'd like to add? 7. What is your full name,
title, company, and city/state headquarters? Erik J. Martin

Query:
If you've worked for a moving company in the past (small, mom
and pop OR large van line), we are looking to hear from you!
What are some of the most insane things you've seen while on the
job? For example, are you a former move coordinator who
witnessed avoidable service failures? Or maybe you worked in
billing and can help break down move costs and billing
processes. No matter your role, we are interested in hearing
about your experience! Ultimately, we're looking for the stuff
you wouldn't otherwise know unless you work in the moving
industry.
Requirements:
We are looking for former employees of moving companies ONLY.
Moving coordinators and client-facing professionals preferred,
but we will review feedback from any former employee regardless
of title. We'd also like as much company detail as possible, but
it is NOT required. The focus is on revealing industry
'secrets', loopholes, and/or shocking experiences.
