Some Google Home Speakers are downloading hundreds of gigs of data for no reason

Some Google Home Speaker owners are reporting a bug where devices continuously download hundreds of gigabytes of data in the background. This issue, highlighted by 9to5Google and various Reddit users over the past week, may stem from the speakers failing to correctly download and install a firmware update. Users are advised to monitor their data usage to determine if their specific Google Home Speaker is affected by this unexplained high volume of background data consumption.
