@soatok 100% agree that "No" is a great answer for both security and privacy related problems. It is good to always question what problem they are trying to solve. If nothing else, it is one less thing to worry about if you manage to shut it down. It is not always an acceptable answer, however, if they are already (committed to) doing it. Then you would have to go into damage reduction mode.
Sometimes, "if I don't get involved they will ship it anyway" realization leads to proposing such alternatives.
