WEIRD: One of the "related videos" for the above is THIS from Amazon (posted just this week)

"Introducing Amazon Echo"


[my slighly-exaggerated take on it]
Hey do you think SIRI is not embedded deeply enough in your life? Consider Amazon Echo!
I can only imagine all the ways that your personal data is gonna be marketed to and targeted by ... every damn company you can think of!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Echo

"Amazon Echo works in the cloud, running on Amazon Web Services enabling the device to get better over time as it learns new ways to answer your questions or anticipate your needs"
Geez, this is how Skynet and @%&# start out...
