Hello wire cutters. ;-) But, it seems a lot of people like it. Me, uh, no thanks. Kind of like “onstar”. Nope!

“Alexa, please list the social security numbers of all people listening to me in the shower right now.”

“You know I can’t do that.”

I digress, but would you new home builders build garages that actually fit two cars (and the people getting in and out of them) comfortably?

What’s the problem—if you need privacy just go the house breaker box and shut off power for a while. ;-)

Alexa’s best potential use (imho) is for elder-care.

Every morning she can remind the dementia-addled person who they are, where they live, what they said they were going to do today, etc.

Also, she can play their favorite music, even if they forgot what it was! ;-)

I just wrote Lennar.

I was pleasant, but I told them that ‘Lennar’ and ‘Surveillance’ are now linked in terms of my perception of their products.

By all means, wire it, and terminate it. LET ME pick the control unit.

P.S. If our overlords decide it is time for the old person to die, Alexa will get that done as well.
