I've been saying this for years, but I am still surprised there was no class action against Google for borking up their Home speakers.

Mine literally don't even understand "STOP" anymore when I ask them to stop playing my podcast. I am not kidding, every couple months they lose some basic functionality.

If that's not a modern version of planned obsolescence then I don't know what is.
