Yes Amazon has monopolized the voice controlled infrastructure and made its kind of passive surveillance normative. It’s just so goddamn convenient and ubiquitous perpetually incentivizing usage. Counterintuitively part of the allure for families is the absence of a screen which mitigates the addictiveness compared to a tablet. I think the warning is prescient but perhaps defensive is there a way to hack the algorithm or overlay with a sound that cancels out the recording taking place w/o an agreed trigger word? Part of the success of Alexa is the accessibility for the user, I can acknowledge it introduces a new problem while solving another but do you have suggestions for nuanced response besides abstinence?
