Turn it off and send it back.

Battlestar Galactica survived the initial attack because of analog technology.

One of the reasons I’ve never signed on with any of that Amazon horse shit.

I’m no Adama, but I like my privacy.

FFS.. so many people posting security issues, while walking around with a pocket computer full of dozens of apps which report your behaviours. All Amazon wants to do is make you buy more shit... They're not gathering intel to send you to the gulag.

I literally bought the latest version of the Echo to get early access to A+. I'm really looking forward to have an AI assistant like this in my house completely hands free.

ome years back a company I worked for gave it out as christmas presents to the staff. It's still in the box, never opened. We didn't want to be spied on.

My phone already listens to me more than i want it to. Never getting one of those damn plastic spying cans unless having one pays my expenses.
