My Alexa keeps asking me to introduce myself to her.  She keeps asking me my name and to tell her something about myself.

 

I can't type the words here I say to Alexa.  I'll give you a few hints on my 'choice words' to Alexa.

 

It involves a place other than Heaven (on where to go).  It has involved telling her to kiss my backside....

 

Those are the nice things I say to her.....I have no intention of telling Alexa about myself or my life.

 

She listens too much as it is..........................

 

This is for real and it just started this week.  Normally I only ask her how to spell long words.

I push the off button when I'm not asking questions.  It turns her off and lights up red.  Then when I want to know something I just push the button and turn her on again.

Alexa knows my name. I just asked "her" and she was correct. I don't remember when I told her my first name, but I'm sure I did at some point.

That's why I will never have one of those things.

What's neat is all the new Echo devices (includes glasses and a really neat speaker, which at current time only works with Amazon Audible - -$16 a mth!).

"She" asked DH a long time ago.  He didn't answer and I told him she was flirting with him.  One day last week she told me something like "We haven't met ... then asked my name.  I ignored her and just laughed.  She's been answering my questions for a year or more and now she wants to get to know me?  Witch, you already know everything there is to know and don't tell me you don't.  LOL.

@tansy :They are voice activated, $200 and you still need to put in your prescription; not something I'm interested in.

She has become very nosey just lately.
