To my mind, the device certainly isn't some sort of serious, imminent threat, but I am sceptical because it raises philosophical objections about the direction of travel.
If the NSA, CIA, a foreign government, competitors, your own company, your mother, etc. wanted to listen to you and other people en masse, they're going to be backdooring a piece of software which is used by more people. A niche product like this wouldn't warrant the time necessary to bacdoor/collect data.
