Amazon's $1.7 billion deal could put millions of consumers' data at risk and allow the tech giant to knock Roomba's competitors out of the market.

Ron Knox, a senior researcher at the Institute for Local Self Reliance, has called on regulators to challenge the deal, calling it the "most dangerous, threatening" acquisition in the e-commerce behemoth's history.

"The most advanced versions of Roomba collect information about your house as they clean," Knox adds. "It knows where you keep your furniture, the size of each room and so on. It's a vacuum and a mapping device." "I don't believe the robots are a problem to have in the house," she said. "They're doing such a useful job for people. And I believe that Amazon is interested in the smart home and having that connected technology all work together."
