So has anyone heard about anyone getting in trouble for "hate speech" picked up by Alexa?
It's already bad enough that our cellphones pick up everything we say. Why the hell would anyone want another spy gadget in their home?

So your wife’s friend read a one-sided article on Facebook and here we are.

It's worth it to not have to turn on a lamp 6 ft away.

You can mute the mic if you're about to go on a racist tirade.

Oh please. It doesn't have to be "racist" to be racist.
And those switches are soft switches including the mic mute switch.

Alexa tells me black jokes. Weird
Posted on 1/23/22 at 7:04 pm to Tempratt
I just want Alexa to understand the voice patterns of the primary holder (and allowed guests) to take priority over requests and not my children
Example:
Alexa: Would you like to purchase this item?
Me (or my wife): no!
One of our four children: yes!
Alexa: your item will be sent to your home in two days
Dammit alexa

I love these types of threads.
Step 1 - ask about a theoretical situation that has never happened
Step 2 - proceed to a conclusion as if that theoretical is commonplace

So you’re ok with your phone listening and watching but not an Alexa device?

It will never fail to amuse me that people who believe vaccines contain GPS tracking and thus are part of a government conspiracy also love and use anything "smart". Hell, even your baby monitor can be easily hacked to spy on you.

I use the posh British female accent on devices anytime I can.
Heterosexual males who aren’t aroused by that dialect are suspect Aggie cruuts.
Here’s an illustration of what type of human animal speaks this way-

Baw, I don't give a shite as long as my refrigerator can tell my car to tell my watch to tell me that I'm out of cream cheese.

My wife asked why I was speaking so softly at home.
I told her I was afraid that Mark Zuckerberg was listening!
She laughed. I laughed. Alexa laughed. Siri laughed.
