I'm also concerned about the privacy implications, but think it would be neat to hack this thing into a personal Robot9000 machine - though I don't know how it would punish you.

From their website:

  "...Starling doesn’t record anything you say – it simply counts words as they pass by."
For privacy concerned among us it would be nice to see them elaborate a bit more on privacy. That being said, this device looks amazing.
