An alternative to integrating with one of google's surveillance devices is to use Mycroft.

Mycroft is amazing! I built a PiCroft using my RaspPi 3 and a USB mic and it works surprisingly well. Also, yeah, no surveillance is cool

"Don't let Google spy on you, instead use this solution that is built on Google's STT cloud service."

It is neat that they one day plan to move to a speech to text service that is OSS (by Mozilla?), but in the mean time all of the providers are proprietary with Google being the default.

If Google Mini is a "surveillance device" then so is Mycroft.
