Amazon Echoes Are Ordering Dollhouse After Overhearing News Report
Is there an Echo in here? If so, turn off the TV.
Alexa’s a shop-o-holic with a very specific poison. She likes dollhouses, and if you’re not careful, you might have one coming to your house.
Well, sort of. Apparently, a news report about a little girl ordering a dollhouse and some cookies on her family’s Amazon Echo is triggering some nearby Echoes to do the same. It wasn’t just any dollhouse. It was one that cost $162. Ouch. Luckily, Amazon’s got an awesome return policy.
At least the report was talking about Alexa ordering an AK-47 or something. That would be bad, you know. If someone got a package and it was an Assault Rifle. Dodged a bullet there. Sorry.
