No, they don’t. It’s a choice people make, and most aren’t buying Kindle, Echo or other near useless spying device like that.

Not that it matters though - phones are [already a vector](https://www.wired.com/2014/06/nsa-bug-iphone/) for the government to listen to you. I'm not sure this news really changes anything - the government already works with large US companies to spy on people, and then makes sure they're not allowed to disclose it to the public.
Also, I think Kindle is a great product, and wouldn't consider it a useless spying device. Each to their own though.
Are we assuming that all the individuals who purchased the devices live completely alone? There are only 128 million households in the US. [0]
