I would love to agree here, but I live in an area where they do such a piss-poor job of announcing when people need to vote, that even I have a hard time knowing all of the things and when they happen.

The system is broken.

Have fun learning, and this is not a dumb question. You're on the right track.

But my google home tells me that the microphone is disabled when I say the magic phrase. How can you not trust that?

I already ditched Chrome and Gmail over this kind of garbage. Most, probably not, but the privacy and security minded will find alternatives.
